After accounting for AKT scores for the CSA outcome, non-UK ethnic minorities remained non-significant (OR 0.62, 95% CI = 0.31 to 1.22,P= 0.168) and the other two ethnic categories significant: White non-UK (OR 0.21, 95% CI = 0.08 to 0.55, P= 0.001) and ethnic minority non-UK (OR 0.15, 95% CI = 0.08 to 0.35, P<0.001). AKT = Applied Knowledge Test. CSA = Clinical Skills Assessment. MSRA = Multi-Specialty Recruitment Assessment. OR = odds ratio. PMQ = primary medical qualification. RCA = Recorded Consultation Assessment. WPBA—ARCP = Workplace-Based Assessment and Annual Review of Competency Progression.
