Important notice: Changes to the MRCP(UK) Examination
The MRCP(UK) Examination provides information on candidates’ core medical knowledge, basic clinical problem solving skills and the management of common and important medical emergencies. The core medical knowledge and skills tested in the MRCP(UK) Examination provide the very basis that equips doctors to proceed to focus on individual specialties, secure in their grounding in other systems. In recognition that the rate of acquisition of core medical knowledge and practical clinical skills may differ the MRCP(UK) Management Board has decided that the MRCP(UK) Part 2 Written and Part 2 Clinical (PACES) Examinations can, in future, be taken in any order. In addition, to ease the time pressures on trainees, the MRCP(UK) Part 1 Examination will be made available sooner and the "18 month rule" revised to allow examination entry once 12 months have elapsed after graduation.
The changes in respect to eligibility for and entry to the MRCP(UK) Examination will be applicable to UK and International candidates.
For more detailed information please refer to the  Entry and Eligibility Changes to the MRCP(UK) Regulations.
