This book, in my opinion was the best - its format was concise and easy to use. Amazon review "`This is an ideal book for MRCPsych Paper 1 preparation. Each answer is provided with very good explanations and references to reliable text books (and not ""Wikipedia""). If one reads around the questions provided, the entire syllabus is very well covered.' Amazon review `I would like to congratulate and thank the author for creating this book. This book has given lot of important information about exam techniques,which I was never aware of and this has completely changed my approach to answer MCqs. On the whole this book is an execellent taster of MRCPsych and it does serve the purpose.' Amazon review `This is an ideal book for MRCPsych Paper 1 preparation. Each answer is provided with very good explanations and references to reliable text books (and not ""Wikipedia""). If one reads around the questions provided, the entire syllabus is very well covered. It is also less time consuming as u dont have to go hunting for references yourself. With the change in the Royal College exam pattern and lack of MCQ question bank this book is a real boon. The multiple choices are intelligently chosen and makes you scratch your head a bit rather than being overly obvious. Definitely recommended !'
