The Respiratory Medicine SCE 2023/01 exam results have now been released.

Candidates can view results within MyMRCP(UK).

From the 2023/4 diet, delivery of the Part 1 and Part 2 will move to online, centre-based exams for our international candidates. This will replace the pencil and paper format. The application process is the same as before and the exam content and format remains unchanged, so candidates should prepare in the same way as they normally would.

We have a long-standing policy to allow doctors in the UK who hold recognised refugee status to pay a reduced fee of £50 when applying to sit the Part 1 Examination.

Following a review of this policy, the Federation of Royal Colleges of Physicians of the UK has decided that this reduced fee will also apply to both the MRCP(UK) Part 2 Written and PACES examinations from the 2023/03 diets.

Thank you to all those who have recently reached out to MRCP(UK) about the availability of places for PACES exams in international centres. 

We fully acknowledge that the current application process can be frustrating for many, and to improve this we are undertaking an extensive Digital Transformation Programme which we expect will significantly improve the experience of the doctors and candidates whom we serve. 

I am delighted to announce the appointment of Rachael O’Flynn as the Chief Executive officer for the Federation of the Royal Colleges of Physicians of the UK. Rachael has previously worked for the Federation, firstly as Head of Operations managing the delivery of the MRCP(UK) and SCE examinations, and then as the director of the

We recognise and understand that many physicians in Sudan are affected by the issues caused by the ongoing conflict in the country. We continue to work closely with our delivery partners in the region to explore all available options to ensure local physicians can sit MRCP(UK) examinations, minimising delays to their training progression. Candidates who were due to sit the cancelled MRCP(UK) Part 1 Written 2023/02 exam on 19 April 2023 were automatically entered into the next diet, scheduled for 9 August 2023. We will keep all affected candidates informed should the situation change. 

Following the developing political situation in Pakistan, we are working closely with our British Council partners in both Karachi and Lahore to monitor the situation. We currently expect the exam to go ahead in Pakistan as planned. Should this change we will contact all affected candidates directly as soon as possible.
