Notes for the MRCGP

Notes for the MRCGP is a revision guide for the examination that guides the candidate through all of the perils and pitfalls of this examination. The book is distinctly non-clinical in style because most candidates should have a strong background in this area and the examiners tend to stress the non-clinical areas that now pose most problems to the candidates. This new edition reflects up-to-date changes to the exam which now includes a move away from negative marking of MCQs with more emphasis given to the video assessment to demonstrate consultation skills. Fundholding is now an important part of being a GP, and along with the role of computers, the 'Health of the Nation', the 'Patient's Charter', and a new complaints procedure it is one of many new areas to receive attention in this edition.
