PACES MADE EASY — MRCP (UK) & MRCP (Ireland) PACES Preparation & Mentorship by Dr. Salman Ahsam

“I joined Dr. Salman's PACES course at the very beginning of my preparation, completely from scratch. The sessions are brilliantly structured, teaching a systematic approach to every case while providing invaluable, constructive feedback. It was instrumental in my success — highly recommended to anyone looking to clear PACES.”

“Alhamdulillah I scored 97% (163 out of 168) in the PACES exam in diet 1, January 2026. I'm really thankful to Dr Salman Ahsam for his mentorship and guidance. Though I took it for a brief period as an active participant, it helped me a lot in my exam.”

“Dr Salman started teaching me when I didn't even know the 'P' of PACES — I couldn't speak a single sentence in English properly. He encouraged and motivated me, helped me many times not like a teacher but an elder brother. His comprehensive approach to all PACES skills is superb.”

“Dear Salman Sir — with a heart full of gratitude, I'm proud to say I achieved my MRCP UK membership under your guidance. Back in 2023 I knew nothing about the pattern or examiners' expectations. You taught me everything from scratch and raised me to become a better physician than I was.”

“I cleared PACES in my first attempt from Hyderabad — 151/168. I joined the 4-week course as an active participant. He gives written feedback in the RCP format which is extremely useful. I got 100% marks in both communication stations. All thanks to sir!”

“Thankfully, I passed MRCP (UK) PACES on my 1st attempt. By attending his courses and listening to his lectures, I scored full marks for my clinical communication station and near full marks for my consultation station. I hope future candidates give Dr Salman's course a chance.”

“I'm really delighted that by the grace of God I cleared my MRCP PACES exam 2026/1. Dr Salman sir's method of teaching is to the point and simplified — very helpful in my communication stations. I would definitely recommend his online course.”

“I'm sincerely grateful to Dr. Salman — I cleared PACES from Trivandrum with 150/168. The sessions were highly structured, clinically focused and truly exam-oriented. The bedside tips, systematic frameworks and detailed feedback significantly improved my confidence under pressure.”

“Preparation for PACES is different from Part 1 and 2. That's where Dr Ahsam's course is most helpful — it's not just teaching, it's mentorship: what and how to study, how to approach the consultation station, manage time and handle communication. 100% recommend.”

“Thank you for your kind and patient guidance for my PACES journey. I started the 2025/01 diet within a very short duration and Dr. Salman kindly agreed to help me one-to-one despite his busy schedule. His approach to my weak areas was remarkable.”

“Dr Salman is an excellent teacher with years of experience. The course fine-tuned my approach to clinical consultations — the part of the exam carrying the highest marks. You can start with a listener slot to get an idea, then move to active participant slots. Highly recommend.”

“Dear Dr Salman Ahsam — thank you for guiding me throughout my PACES journey. The case scenarios and teaching are almost similar to the real exam. The price is very reasonable, and the best thing is there's no time limit during the one-on-one sessions. I'm forever grateful.”

“I was an active participant in the December course and passed in my first attempt with flying colours from Kathmandu. I was 8 months pregnant when I got my seat, yet got all the help I needed. I scored 15/16 in both communication stations. Sir was empathetic throughout.”

“Alhamdulillah, I passed PACES from Puducherry. With multiple health issues I couldn't attend any offline course. Dr Salman identifies the weakness of every student and gives an honest effort to rectify it. It gifted me 28 & 24 in my consultation stations and full marks in both communication stations.”

“I failed my first attempt, then got a substitute seat 3 weeks before March PACES. I joined Dr Salman's class as a listener — I used to listen while putting my kids to sleep. I got 158/168. I went in with his advice ringing in my ears: NEVER ASSUME ANYTHING.”

“I was introduced to this course by a friend. After attending I got an outline of how to approach consultation and communication stations — hence I scored 28/28 in both consultation stations. Dr Salman makes the approach to each case crystal clear.”

“I have passed MRCP UK from London on my first attempt. I'm thankful to Dr Salman for his guidance and motivation. I secured full marks in clinical consultation station 2 and also in neurology.”

“Your classes and teaching helped me score full marks for both my consultation stations. Your structured history-taking really helped in my 2 long cases. After joining his classes I changed the way I prepare and went more focused.”

“I'm incredibly grateful to Dr. Salman. His one-on-one sessions were exactly what I needed — he customised each session to my needs and showed genuine care for my progress, consistently checking in to make sure I was confident. I couldn't have asked for a better mentor.”

“Happy to share passing PACES in first attempt and completing MRCP UK. I took his course as a listener twice and one-to-one mentorship on clinical stations. His depth of knowledge and ability to make students understand is exceptional.”

“Dear Dr. Salman, I still remember the devastation after my previous attempt where I missed by just 1 mark in the communication station. Your words of encouragement gave me the strength to persevere. This time, I scored full marks in both communication stations.”

“I passed PACES from Dubai on my first attempt. I was an active participant in the July course, then took a 1-to-1 before my exam. The course was the pillar of my preparation, and the 1-to-1 made me more accurate and efficient in communication and consultation.”

“My journey with Dr Salman started over a year ago when I had no idea how PACES was conducted. Compared to other online PACES courses, Dr Salman's is definitely the best — not just the content, but the delivery and his obvious passion for ensuring his candidates pass.”

“I started my PACES preparation from scratch with Dr Salman's 1:1 course. The feedback after every case presentation helped me improve, and by the end I was scoring near full marks. I'm grateful he helped me achieve my dream in the first attempt.”

“I've been a listener of Dr Salman's courses since 2022 and recently opted for one-to-one sessions, crafted exclusively around my schedule. Dr Salman is extremely honest and dedicated, and makes sure he paves a path of excellence — not only for exams but to make you a better clinician.”

“Dr. Salman's course is highly recommended for MRCP UK PACES. I'd suggest a monthly course plus one-to-one sessions back to back before the exam. After his course I felt remarkable improvement, especially in long consultation and communication stations.”

“Alhamdulillah, I cleared MRCP Ireland clinical exam from Muscat. I attended the Feb 2024 course as an active participant and later a one-to-one mentorship. The high-yield nature meant I hardly needed any other resource. I highly recommend this course.”

“Dr. Salman has been a positive influence on my MRCP (Ireland) preparation. With the one-on-one programme he quickly identifies your weak areas. He gives model answers for communication and ethics stations and follows up closely during your exam.”

“I passed my MRCPI clinical exam first attempt with a high score after Dr Salman's November course. It teaches an approach that prepares you to face any clinical scenario with confidence. His tips and tricks for picking up signs are a must-have.”

“I have passed my MRCPI clinical exam, Alhamdulillah, and the pioneer in my preparation was this course by Dr Salman Ahsam. His course structure facilitated a systematic approach to history, examination, reaching the diagnosis and management. Useful both as active participant and listener.”

“Dr Salman, you run one of the rare courses that places heavy emphasis on the more technically challenging cases in LCC and communications. You are among the most systematic, seasoned and skilled tutors I've encountered.”

“I passed PACES in Kuala Lumpur on first attempt — score of 159. I've been a listener since Feb 2023 and a candidate in May 2023. I've learnt so much, especially the art of history taking. I strongly recommend everyone to join his class.”

“I've been an active participant and listener of Dr Salman's classes since August 2022. He helped me secure my MRCPI (2023) and MRCP UK (2024) both on first attempts. His persistence, dedication and tenacity in expecting his students to excel is extremely admirable.”

“Salman Sir was my first mentor. He taught me how to approach cases — what questions to ask, how to structure answers and how to avoid missing key details. His methods for clinical stations are pure gold. In my first attempt I just followed his approach.”

“By the grace of the Almighty I passed PACES — it wouldn't be possible without Salman sir. He literally taught me from scratch. PACES is an exam of controlling your nerves, presentation, application and aptness — and Salman sir is a master of teaching it.”

“By the grace of Almighty Allah I passed my MRCP PACES on the 1st attempt from Kathmandu in 2025. The most difficult stations are LCC and communication — without knowing the structure, passing is not possible. Sir made it easy for me.”

“Salman Sir made me believe that even if you face a case you've never encountered before, you can still score full marks — and that's exactly what happened in my first attempt. His approach to clinical stations is an absolute gem.”

“Your courses — though rooted in the basics — were truly the crux of my success in passing MRCP PACES Diet 3 2025 from Chennai. You taught me to return to the true fundamentals of medicine. For anyone who wishes to pass PACES, your teaching is transformative.”

“I've recently qualified MRCP UK from Pakistan. Being detached from clinical work, I twice attended your classes as a listener and learned a lot. It is a smart and economical way of learning with a teacher dedicated to making their students pass.”

“I cleared MRCPI in March 2023 and MRCP UK in Dec 2023 from Kochi. Dr. Salman describes each case in detail — his teaching on Long Clinical Consultations and notes on cardiovascular and respiratory cases is a treasure to watch.”
