Preparation for MRCP(UK) examinations

The Royal Colleges of Physicians of the United Kingdom recommend that candidates prepare for the exams by gaining clinical experience in hospital posts involving the care of emergency medical patients, whether adults or children, and by studying up-to-date postgraduate clinical textbooks and current medical journals.

There are a number of courses available to help candidates prepare most of which are advertised in the medical press. The Royal Colleges of Physicians do not provide lists of recommended MRCP(UK) courses.

For MRCP(UK) courses provided by the three Colleges that make up the Federation of Royal Colleges of Physicians of the United Kingdom please see:
