Product Description

The MRCP Part 2 Examination is increasingly orientated around evidence-based medicine, up-to-date patient management and current guidelines. This is a move away from the esoteric questions seen in the past and it makes a more useful exam. This book combines the three sections of the exam; case histories, data interpretations and photographic material, to give candidates all round practice.

Customer Reviews

Good stuff
4 serious practice papers in the current (n of many) format, which we found extremely close to the real thing. Most of the all-time topics are covered and many questions were very close to the recent exam paper. Answers have helpful comments, which give (some) insight into the mind of people who set the exam.
Some of the images wre a bit tinted but otherwise of very good quality.
The chapter on tests and family trees is extremely useful, not just for the exam.

A useful addition for further revision
This revision book consists of four MCQ papers each of approximately 70questions each. They all follow the BOF or 2 from many format as seen inthe MRCP2 written exam. There are a good variety of pictures, ECGs andother data interpretation questions as well as case histories.
I did feel that the explanations could have been be fuller. In certaintricky subject areas the explanations given did not greatly increase myunderstanding of the topic. The other problem was that the questions inthe book did not have the same "feel" as those in the exam.
This is generally a good book, however perhaps not the first one thatshould be picked up.
