Abstract
Boyle et al. discuss the development and implementation of a Virtual Objective Structured Clinical Examination due to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown precluding face-to-face Objective Structured Clinical Examinations, something we too as clinical medical students studying at University College London have experienced. We commend Boyle et al. for promptly creating and delivering this assessment. However, we believe this style of assessment has the potential to exacerbate the ethnic and social inequalities that currently exist within medical education. Going forward, it is imperative that the home environment is considered in an attempt to level the playing field.
