Ease the pressure of the GP Vocational Training Scheme Stage 2
exams, and ensure your progress to Stage 3, with this complete
preparation guide
Featuring all question types from the exam, including SBAs, EMQs
and Professional Dilemmas, and covering a range of medical and
surgical specialties, this invaluable guide not only tests
appropriate application of clinical knowledge, but encourages
doctors to think logically and ethically – vital in recognising
appropriate behaviour in professional dilemmas. The opening section
provides handy advice on how to prepare for the exam and explains
what the question setters are looking for – the key to success in
Stage 2.
Based on the contributors’ own experience of typical
problems and dilemmas, and including thorough explanations for each
answer, this book is not just an exam crammer, but a valuable
learning tool.
