OSCE Scenario Prompt

Station 4: Small Animal Medicine Signalment: "Luna," 6-year-old female spayed Labrador Retriever, 32 kg Presenting Complaint: Owner reports progressive lethargy, decreased appetite, and increased water intake over the past 3 weeks. Luna has also had two episodes of vomiting in the last 48 hours. Vitals on Presentation: - Temperature: 101.8F (38.8C) - Heart Rate: 110 bpm - Respiratory Rate: 24 breaths/min - BCS: 5/9 (previously 6/9 two months ago) - CRT: < 2 seconds, mucous membranes pink Task: Develop a ranked differential diagnosis list (minimum 5), recommend an initial diagnostic workup, and outline your immediate treatment approach. You have 10 minutes.

Student Response (Example)

Differential Diagnosis (ranked): 1. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) - PU/PD, lethargy, decreased appetite, weight loss, vomiting 2. Diabetes mellitus - PU/PD, weight loss, lethargy; less likely without PG checked 3. Hypoadrenocorticism (Addison's disease) - vomiting, lethargy, waxing/waning signs 4. Hepatic disease - vomiting, inappetence, lethargy 5. Pyometra - unlikely given spay status, but stump pyometra possible 6. Hypercalcemia of malignancy - PU/PD, lethargy, vomiting, weight loss Diagnostic Workup: - CBC, chemistry panel with electrolytes, urinalysis with UPC ratio - Blood glucose to rule out diabetes - Abdominal ultrasound to evaluate kidneys, liver, and adrenals - Basal cortisol if Addison's suspected (screen < 2 ug/dL) - Ionized calcium Immediate Treatment: - IV fluid therapy (LRS at 2x maintenance) to correct dehydration - Maropitant 1 mg/kg SC for vomiting - NPO for 12 hours then bland diet trial - Monitor urine output and hydration status

AI Grading Feedback

Overall Score: 87/100 (Exceeds Expectations) Differential Diagnosis: 22/25 - Excellent ranked list with strong clinical reasoning - Good inclusion of stump pyometra as an atypical consideration - Consider adding inflammatory bowel disease or GI lymphoma given chronicity and weight loss - Hypercalcemia of malignancy is well-placed; specify neoplasm types (lymphoma, anal sac adenocarcinoma) Diagnostic Plan: 24/25 - Comprehensive and well-prioritized initial workup - UPC ratio shows strong understanding of renal assessment - Basal cortisol as Addison's screen is excellent - Consider adding T4 to rule out concurrent thyroid disease in middle-aged dog Treatment Approach: 21/25 - Appropriate IV fluid selection and rate - Correct antiemetic choice and dose - Missing: specify monitoring parameters (BW, PCV/TS, electrolytes q12h) - Consider adding sucralfate if uremia suspected Clinical Reasoning: 20/25 - Strong logical flow from history to differentials to diagnostics - Good integration of signalment into likelihood ranking - Could strengthen by explicitly linking each differential to specific exam findings

How It Works

Three steps to better documentation

1

Select a Clinical Scenario

Choose from OSCE stations across small animal medicine, surgery, emergency, dentistry, radiology, and more. Each scenario includes a realistic signalment, history, vitals, and a timed task.

2

Work Through the Case

Type your differential diagnosis, diagnostic plan, and treatment approach just as you would at a real OSCE station. The timer keeps you focused and builds exam-day time management skills.

3

Get AI-Graded Feedback

Receive a detailed score breakdown within seconds. The AI evaluator grades your response on differentials, diagnostics, treatment, and clinical reasoning using structured rubrics aligned with veterinary education standards.

Built for Veterinary Student Success

Realistic Scenarios

Each OSCE station is designed by veterinary educators to reflect real clinical presentations. Scenarios include complete signalment, history, physical exam findings, and vitals to simulate authentic exam conditions.

AI-Powered Grading

VetGeni uses a purpose-built grading engine (AWS Lambda) with structured evaluation rubrics. Your response is scored across multiple domains including differential diagnosis quality, diagnostic reasoning, and treatment appropriateness.

Instant Detailed Feedback

No waiting for faculty availability. Get comprehensive feedback in under 10 seconds with specific suggestions for improvement, missed differentials, and clinical reasoning gaps identified automatically.

Multiple Specialties

Practice across small animal medicine, surgery, emergency and critical care, dentistry, radiology, ophthalmology, dermatology, and more. New scenarios are added regularly to expand coverage.

Progress Tracking

Track your scores over time across different clinical domains. Identify weak areas, measure improvement, and focus your study time where it matters most before exam day.

Student Pricing

VetGeni offers year-based pricing tiers specifically for veterinary students. Access OSCE training alongside the full clinical AI platform including drug database, SOAP notes, and voice transcription at student-friendly rates.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI grading work?

VetGeni uses a purpose-built OSCE grading engine deployed on AWS Lambda. When you submit your response, it is evaluated against structured rubrics that score differential diagnosis quality, diagnostic plan completeness, treatment appropriateness, and clinical reasoning. The AI compares your answer against expert-defined criteria and provides a numerical score with detailed written feedback for each domain.

What OSCE scenarios are available?

VetGeni offers scenarios across small animal medicine, surgery, emergency and critical care, dentistry, radiology, ophthalmology, dermatology, neurology, and more. Each scenario is a complete OSCE station with signalment, history, physical exam findings, vitals, and a timed clinical task. New scenarios are added regularly based on common exam topics and faculty feedback.

Can faculty customize scenarios for their program?

Yes. Veterinary teaching institutions can work with VetGeni to create custom OSCE scenarios tailored to their curriculum, learning objectives, and evaluation criteria. Custom scenarios use the same AI grading infrastructure but with institution-specific rubrics and expected answer frameworks.

Is this useful for NAVLE preparation?

VetGeni OSCE training builds the clinical reasoning skills tested on the NAVLE. While the platform focuses on practical clinical scenarios rather than multiple-choice format, the differential diagnosis, diagnostic planning, and treatment reasoning skills you develop transfer directly to NAVLE preparation. Many students use VetGeni alongside dedicated NAVLE question banks.

How much does OSCE training cost?

VetGeni offers year-based pricing tiers for veterinary students that include OSCE training alongside the full clinical AI platform. You can try OSCE practice for free to experience the AI grading before subscribing. Student pricing is significantly lower than professional tiers, and institutional licensing is available for veterinary schools.

How accurate is the AI grading compared to faculty?

VetGeni's OSCE grading engine uses structured rubrics developed with veterinary educators. The AI is consistent and unbiased in applying evaluation criteria, which eliminates inter-examiner variability. However, AI grading is a learning tool and should complement, not replace, faculty-led assessment. The detailed feedback helps students identify gaps before their real OSCE exam.
