Survival Kit for the MRCP Part II

This volume contains over 115 clinical scenarios covering all the major areas of internal medicine, presented to test the understanding of the reader and make them a more effective physician. The second part of the Membership Examination for the Royal College of Physicians (MRCP) examination is one of the most difficult tests for trainee physicians. Candidates have to be able to analyze complex clinical situations under stress and show a true understanding of medicine in all its facets. Rather than just presenting a melange of questions, the book is an illustration of how heuristics, lateral thinking, causal reasoning, diagnostic verification and pathophysiological reasoning should make the critical difference between success and failure.
