What is the SJTace?
The Situational Judgement Test for Admission to Clinical Education (SJTace) is an admissions test used by the Universities of St Andrews and Dundee for entry to their Graduate Entry Medical Programme (ScotGEM).
The SJTace measures your capacity to understand real world situations and to identify critical factors and appropriate behaviour in dealing with them. The test assesses integrity, perspective taking, team involvement, resilience and adaptability.
It is designed to help select applicants with the most appropriate professional behaviours required for new doctors to be successful in their clinical careers. Situational Judgement Tests are used widely in medical selection, including selection of Foundation Doctors, GPs and other medical specialties.
The test is run by the UKCAT Consortium in partnership with Pearson VUE, a global leader in computer-based testing and part of Pearson plc. It is delivered on computers worldwide through Pearson VUE’s high street centres.
