MCQs & Short Answer Questions for MRCOG: An aid to revision and self-assessment [ Active ]

Preface

This book of ‘true/false' and ‘short answer' questions is a companion text to Obstetrics and Gynaecology: An evidence-based text for MRCOG. When we compiled the MRCOG textbook, our aim was to move away from traditional or ‘enteric-based' practice and attempt to detail the available evidence upon which our practice of obstetrics and gynaecology is based. The textbook template is linked to the MRCOG syllabus, in order to help trainees to understand the core knowledge of the specialty. The purpose of this companion volume is to assist the acquisition of ‘evidence-based' core knowledge; this should be particularly valuable for candidates taking the membership examination.

Ideally, we suggest that readers work through each set of questions with pen and paper. We think that maximum benefit would be achieved if readers commit themselves on paper to the questions raised before referring to the subsequent answers. At the end of each question/ group of questions, readers are referred to the appropriate chapter in the evidence-based textbook.
