Exam proctor
Here to help you get oriented before the panel begins.
Welcome to the panel exam — I'm Dr. Compass, your proctor. Here's how this works: choose a case below, then take five to ten minutes with the candidate brief to prepare — there's a prep timer if you'd like one. Pick your orientation and difficulty, and when you're ready, press Begin exam. You'll present to Dr. McFreudian, Dr. Lynahana, and Dr. Ramezani. Any questions — just speak, I'm listening.

Choose your case

Pick a category, then a case. You can switch any time before the exam begins.

Exam settings

The panel will ask about your chosen theoretical orientation, your conceptualization, treatment plan, and the legal, ethical, and diversity considerations the case raises. Stay in your chosen orientation throughout.

CBT targets the interconnection between cognition, emotion, and behaviour to achieve symptom reduction and durable change.

Balanced. Substantive but supportive. Good default.
