WUSCE	Suboptimal	Dangerous	Lethal
1	31	10	2

Table 2 shows the number of FY1s who the assessor deemed to have made ‘suboptimal’, ‘dangerous’ or potentially ‘lethal’ errors during the completion of the individual WUSCEs. The values are the number of each level of error identified by the assessors. However, one FY1 doctor can be represented in all three of the levels in WUSCE 1. The total number of WUSCEs taken was 161.
