Overview

This new edition of the MRCGP Study Guide has been purposely revised and updated to comprehensively cover every aspect of the membership examination of the Royal College of General Practitioners. It takes you through all the main medical topics fundamental to general practice, all relevant non- clinical areas, and then finally tests you with an AKT and CSA style examination. All the information you need in one place. This guide can be used as a source of reference, and for revising, to ensure you are perfectly prepared. It saves you the colossal amount of time you would otherwise need to cover the same ground.
