Medical education and the tools used for assessment are continually
evolving. Single Best Answer (SBA) questions are a relatively new
method of assessment commonly encountered in final surgical exams.
The key to success in any SBA-style examination is practice,
practice and more practice. With nearly 300 structured questions,
this book comprehensively covers the surgical curriculum. Each
specialty-specific chapter contains a combination of clinical
vignettes and knowledge-based questions of varying degrees of
difficulty, both challenging the more able candidates as well as
giving a realistic appreciation of the standard required to pass.
Each question gives a detailed explanation of the correct answer to
aid reflection and reinforce understanding. This book is the ideal
revision aid for all undergraduate medical students preparing for
their final examination in surgery. In addition, doctors studying
for the Membership of the Royal College of Surgeons (MRCS) and the
Professional and Linguistic Assessment Board (PLAB) examinations
will also find this book extremely useful.

Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) are commonly
encountered at all levels of medical school including the final
MBBS examination. OSCEs also play an important role at postgraduate
level and are used to assess competency in the Foundation Years.
One of the fundamental requirements of passing the OSCE is an
understanding of the standard which is expected and an appreciation
of how to demonstrate this. This book discusses 170 commonly
encountered OSCE scenarios, with a step-by-step approach to
maximise your chances of success in the examination. The scenarios
are presented with sufficient background information to enable
candidates to tackle variations. This comprehensive book, covering
both surgery and medicine, overcomes any problems of a tick-box
approach and insufficient detail faced by some alternative texts.
The clear, straight-forward style and logical layout make this book
perfect preparation for OSCE examinations.
