| - The MRCP PACES course |
|
|
This course has been running since 1992 and is one of the leading courses in the country. Candidates have the opportunity to see over 100 system examinations (short cases), as well as receive advice on examination technique and skills for the exam.
The course is structured along the lines of the current adult MRCP PACES examination. Courses are held at weekends, starting at 8.30 am on Saturday, and 9.15 am on the Sunday, ending at 5.30 pm on both days. Each day comprises seven sessions each lasting one hour, with candidates rotating through all seven sessions during the day. Candidates are taught in groups of six for exam stations 1, 3 and 5, and in groups of three for exam stations 2 and 4.
