Introduction: Teacher’s perception is important for improvements in exam methodology and organization. The aim of the study was to find out what teachers thought of the exam and therefore improve the quality, credibility and validity of the final OSCE. Methodology: Cross sectional study facility based study was carried out on the teachers who participated in the execution and preparation of the exam. A questionnaire was designed and filled in by the staff. The questionnaire tackled five domains. Results: 91.6% of teachers agreed that exam was fair, 83.3% of teachers agreed that more time was needed at each station and 75% agreed that more staff was needed for supervision. 66.7% thought that instructions for moving about stations were clear. The mean results showed that perception of the exam, organisation, atmosphere, real patients & simulator patients and perception of the students were good. Conclusion: Time needed to be increased at each station. The number of staff was not enough. Recommendation: Increase time at each station, or make double and linked stations. Increase the number of staff participating in the exam.
