Crossword Genius

Study for a medical examination (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scan

I believe this is a double definition.

'study' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'a medical examination' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for scan that I've seen before include "Look briefly through" , "Look at quickly" , "Look over cursorily" , "Study systematically" , "Examine intensely -- examine superficially" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
