Cracking Paediatrics: Your Path to AMC Australia Success

For International Medical Graduates (IMGs), excelling in the Australian Medical Council (AMC) exams requires not only solid clinical knowledge but also confidence in paediatric stations. At Teaching4IMGs, our AMC4IMGs Clinical Paediatrics Module is strategically designed to help you master paediatrics for both the CAT MCQ and Clinical exams.

Why Paediatrics Matters in AMC Exams

AMC exams assess clinical competence across disciplines—including paediatrics, psychiatry, obstetrics, and medicine. The AMC Clinical exam features 16 stations, and candidates must pass at least 12, including one compulsory paediatric station. With paediatrics being a mandatory hurdle, thorough preparation is crucial.

What Makes Our Paediatric Module Stand Out

Our Paediatric Module offers a structured, high-impact learning experience:

  • Cluster-based sessions covering key areas such as neonatology, growth & development, nutrition, gastroenterology, respiratory, ENT, infectious diseases, neurology, urology, dermatology, psychosocial and emergency pediatrics
  • Interactive Zoom classes held 2–3 times a week for 3 hours per session—expect deep discussions, case-based breakdowns, and exam-style role-plays
  • Comprehensive learning materials, including detailed PDFs, recorded sessions, and expert pointers on recall and tricky question formats
  • Expert guidance: Experienced facilitators focus on enhancing your clinical reasoning, communication skills, and paediatric bedside manner—key to acing paediatric stations.

Building Confidence & Clinical Competence

Paediatrics is not just about memorizing facts—it’s about structure, clarity, and empathy. Our course hones these skills through:

  1. Simulated OSCE practice: Role-plays replicate exam scenarios like developmental assessments, emergency presentations (e.g., febrile seizures), and parent counseling.
  2. Clinical reasoning drills: Focus on arriving at accurate differentials, management plans, and investigations for paediatric red flags.
  3. Guideline-focused teaching: Aligning disease presentation with Australian standards, using resources like the Royal Children’s Hospital (Melbourne) Paediatric Handbook 
  4. Templates & checklists for history, examination, and communication facilitate structure and confidence in exam settings.

Compared with Other Preparations

While other providers offer paediatric modules, Teaching4IMGs takes a holistic and immersive approach:

  • Amedex Clinical occasionally runs paediatric series (~39 hours), but theirs are one-off or short-lived sessions 
  • HEAL offers face to face paediatric workshops in Melbourne (~1 day long) at AUD 300—but they’re not tailored to IMGs or exam clusters, and lack longitudinal coverage 

Teaching4IMGs, however, delivers consistent, exam-focused, live cohorted learning that spans the spectrum from neonates to adolescence.

Choosing the Right Paediatric Course

When selecting a course, consider:

Comprehensive curriculum – Do you get coverage over neonates, emergencies, communication, growth & development, etc.?

Interactive learning – Do role-plays and real-time debriefs help transform theory into exam-ready performance?

Guideline alignment – Is teaching based on Australian standards (e.g., RCH handbook)?

Flexible support – Can you access recordings, extra support, and extend modules if needed?

Value for money – Is the course priced fairly and positioned well in terms of depth and length?

Teaching4IMGs offers unmatched depth and affordability—our full 2-month paediatric courses is AUD 500.

Study Tips to Supplement Your Course

• Review RCH Melbourne Handbook and Practical Paediatrics by Roberton for core knowledge

• Use AMC Handbook of Clinical Assessment and “Karen’s Notes” for structured examination prep

• Regularly practice mock stations and MCQs on paediatric topics.

• Join IMGs study groups or communities (e.g., r/AMCexamForIMGs) for peer support

• Follow Australian antibiotic, fever, asthma, seizure, and nutrition guidelines closely.

Who Should Join?
