FRCPath Exam Update Changes to FRCPath Examinations

摘要

Continued uncertainty surrounds changes to the future structure of the FRCPath exams. Changes are underway to replace both the essays and the SAQ paper with a multiple choice paper for part one. This will need to be ratified by the GMC, and the new format examination will then need to be piloted. It is anticipated that this may take 2 years, and so the current examination format will continue until at least the Autumn 2017 session.
