A Masterpiece, a must for all Final FRCA Goers
The book has been very well written and presented. It contains 10 sets of questions with each set containing a long case, 3 short cases and a basic sciences and a clinicla sciences viva. The cases have been very well picked and answers have been carefully written. If you are aiming for a pass, this book should be more than sufficient. As you go through this book, it gives you an idea about what is expected from you in the exam and how you can put your points in a better way. I passed my exam in the first attempt WITHOUT ATTENDING ANY OF THE EXPENSIVE, MONEY MAKING COURSES. I would definitely recommend this book.
