MRCP Part 1 May Exam Feedback
Use the feedback we have gained after the May sitting of the MRCP Part 1 exam to ensure you have the right knowledge ahead of the September sitting.
We have discovered that candidates experienced a number of challenging topics in the May exam which included:
- Blood film analysis - candidates found it difficult to determine the diagnosis when shown a blood film with features characteristic of a haematological malignancy
- Skin lesions - in other image questions, candidates struggled to name a non-pigmented lesion and determine the diagnosis when given an image of the histology of another skin condition
- Microbiology - candidates were asked the most common causative organism in cholecystitis
- Hydronephrosis - candidates were instructed to choose the most appropriate immediate management of a patient who presented with hyperkalaemia and AKI, secondary to bilateral hydronephrosis
- Anatomy - in a scenario where the patient presented with bilious vomiting, candidates were required to choose the most likely site of intestinal obstruction
