You know that feeling when someone says, "Shall we do a quick viva?"
It doesn't matter who asks - a consultant, a peer, a friend on the same rota - it still feels exposing. You're suddenly hyper-aware of every paused sentence, every half-remembered fact, every moment where your brain goes blank.
We've passed the written. We aren't struggling with the knowledge.
We struggle with being viva'ed.
TalkFRCA was built to take the edge off that. It gives you a space to practise without the pressure of being judged, watched, or compared. No raised eyebrows. No awkward silences. No running into someone in the coffee room right after you've crashed and burned on “tell me about propofol”.
If it helps you walk into your exam feeling steadier, clearer, and just a little less terrified of being viva'ed, then it's doing its job.
