Two Years of Hard Work; Girl with Pearl Earrings!

After 2 years; what has been happening in Neurology4MRCP;

Hard work continues, and many things has changed.

1- Our Orgfree domain is outdated and is replaced by our new full domain. Thanks for orgfree for hosting our website efficiently in the past. The new domain was launched in mid-July.

2- Re-editing our books. "One Year of Hard Work" has a 2nd edition and "Teaching Best of Five Questions with Clinical Scenarios" has reached a 3rd edition.

3- We are concentrating on MRCP(I) Mock papers as they are not available as such in the web. Three mocks, 6 papers, and 300 questions were added. Answer sheets were included to make them perfect. Be familiar with the examination environment!

4- Notes for clinical examination and "Neurology Themes" were written.

5- Although 3 clinical courses were conducted freely by us in 2007, we are planning to increase this number in the year 2008.

By 31st of December 2007, you can find almost 2000 questions for MRCP(I) and MRCP(UK), part I&II, with free clinical courses at times.

Thanks to our visitors.

Happy New Year

MRCP(I) Mock Test; Enough is Never is Enough!

This is the third MRCP(I) part I mock test. I hope that the previous 2 mocks were helpful. I’ve been asked about “how to calculate the final score after answering the mock test?” The MCQs paper has 50 questions, one score for each option; that would result in 250 scores. The BoM paper has 50 questions, one score for each option; that would be 50 scores. The sum of both is 300. The pass mark is usually around 70%, and that is 210/300 correct answer.

As I said previously, always start with the MCQs paper, as it has the bulk of the final score, and is easier to “navigate”. Please read the questions well, mark the answer sheets within 3 hours, and finally verify your answers and calculate your score. Don’t leave any question unmarked, as there is no penalty for wrong ones. During the last quarter of hour, rapidly review your answers and check them carefully on the answer sheets.

I received many email suggesting the addition of online interactive questions with a computerized scoring system to our website. Personally, I discourage such “a process of practicing”; the MRCP examination is neither computer based nor internet based; it is paper based. Many candidates simply fail because of unfamiliarity with the examination environment and wrong way of answering and marking the answer sheets. Try to imagine yourself in the examination hall, print this mock and solve it.Please, do not hesitate in contacting us for any query.

Happy New Year…

I wish you all the best and good luck…

MRCP(I) Mock Paper, The Day Before Examination!

This is the second MRCP(I) part I mock test. I tried to include some of the commonest and most important examination themes. I also included some rare ones. I did not include photographic materials, which are usually few in number.
