MRCP PACES Preparation

You can take the same considerations, and use it to devise a list of clinical conditions that are more likely to come up. Each hospital in the UK has a dedicated postgraduate education unit and the MRCP PACES exam at that centre will be organised locally through this department. As such they will be able to inform you whether they can provide you with accommodation and how much it would cost or otherwise give you local advice about hotels that are nearby and travelling options.

These patients are not coming to your exam. Get real. There is no way an acutely unwell patient who could deteriorate at any time is being brought into your PACES exam to be prodded and poked. MRCP PACES (Practical Assessment of Clinical Examination Skills) is a clinical exam testing clinical knowledge and skills of doctors hoping to begin higher specialist training (ST3). There are a bunch of clinical conditions which are super-stable over time. They’re often quite uncommon or rare in clinical practice, but over-representated in the MRCP PACES exam.

What comes up at specific hospitals

Then we’ll move onto rare conditions that are disproportionately likely to appear in the MRCP PACES exam. There might be some marginal benefit if you look up the hospital online to find out if they are a specialist centre for a specific condition. For example, St. Thomas’s Hospital in Central London is the national centre for post-polio syndrome. As a result in the neurology station you are more likely to have a patient who has had a previous polio infection compared to other UK centres.
