Addendum to Regulations with effect from 2010/3 PACES Examination

Revision to item 6.7 Applying for the MRCP(UK) Part 2 Clinical Examination (PACES)

Acceptance of applications will be on a first-come, first-served basis. In instances where the number of applications for a PACES examination diet exceeds the total number of places available in the UK, priority will be given to candidates in a UK training programme. In this instance any UK trainees applying to take PACES in the UK who are temporarily outside of a UK training programme, but who are seeking to continue UK training and competing for an ST3 post will also be prioritised for a clinical examination place.

Applications in overseas examination centres will be processed in accordance with procedures documented on the MRCP(UK) Part 2 Clinical Examination (PACES) - Centres outside the UK page. Some applicants submitting forms near to but not after the closing date may have their applications returned if places are not available.
