Thames Uro

Practise for FRCS (Urol)
the way it's examined.

Both parts of the exam in one place: a full written question bank and a live AI voice examiner for the viva.

Built by a urology registrar sitting FRCS (Urol). Every question and case is grounded in current EAU, NICE and BAUS guidance.

📚
Part 1 · Written

The Question Bank

A full original question bank, "FRCS in 15" revision podcasts, EAU and NICE crib sheets and flashcards, plus timed mock exams and progress tracking across all 27 topics.

  • Choose quiz, flashcards or a timed mock exam
  • Every question guideline-cited: names the source and explains the trap
  • Crib sheets (EAU and NICE) & "FRCS in 15" podcasts cover the whole syllabus
  • Progress & weak-spots sync across your devices
🎙️
Part 2 · Viva

The Virtual Viva Room

A live AI examiner presents cases, questions you by voice and redirects rather than lectures, then marks you against the three official domains.

  • Pick a station, a full mock, or submit your own case
  • The examiner speaks; you tap to talk and your answer becomes a transcript
  • Marked on the official 4–8 scale (pass ≥ 6) with specific feedback

  • Quiz, flashcard and timed mock-exam modes, with progress and weak-spots that sync across your devices

The scores and nomograms, built in

Each computes live from the values you enter, so you learn how the numbers drive management instead of memorising formulae. Included with any plan.

Examiner
A 68-year-old man has a single episode of painless visible haematuria. How would you assess him?
You
Painless visible haematuria over 45 is an NG12 two-week-wait referral. I'd arrange a four-phase CT urogram, flexible cystoscopy and urine cytology to assess both the upper tracts and the bladder…
Examiner
The CT shows a 3.5 cm enhancing upper-pole mass. Talk me through it.

Questions

Can I start now?

Yes. Thames Uro is live. Pick a plan and start today.

How does Thames Uro compare to other revision platforms?

Two ways. First, flexible pricing: take just Part 1, either viva tier, or pay per viva station. Second, our Part 2 viva is a live, spoken AI examiner that asks follow-ups and marks you on the official scale, not a bank of viva scenarios to read through.

Who's behind Thames Uro?

It's built by a urology registrar sitting the FRCS (Urol) exam, so it's designed around what the exam actually tests. Every question and case is grounded in current EAU, NICE and BAUS guidance.

Is this an official exam resource?

No. Thames Uro is an independent revision tool built by a urology registrar in London. It's for exam practice only and is not medical advice. Always verify against current EAU, NICE and BAUS guidance.

How will I sign in?

Just your email. We send a one-time code, no password to remember. One account works across both the question bank and the viva room.

Is my data private?

Your camera and any self-recordings stay on your device and are never uploaded. Sessions are only stored to improve the examiner if you explicitly opt in. See our Privacy Policy.

How much can I practise on the Premium viva?

Your first 50 stations each month run on the Premium examiner: our most advanced, with deeper and more detailed marking. After that you keep practising for the rest of the month on the Standard examiner, up to a fair-use limit of 100 stations a month in total. Pay-as-you-go credits always use the Premium examiner and don't count towards that limit.

Can I cancel?

Yes, anytime. You keep access until the end of your billing period. Pay-as-you-go credits never expire.
