Get ahead! SPECIALTIES: 250 SBAs for Finals PDF

Preface

Welcome to Get ahead! Specialties. This book contains 250 Single Best Answer questions (SBAs) covering various topics within obstetrics, gynaecology, paediatrics and psychiatry. These are arranged as five practice papers, each containing 50 questions. Allow yourself 60 to 90 minutes for each paper. You can either work through the practice papers systematically or dip in and out of the book using the SBA index as a guide to where questions on a specific topic can be found. We have tried to include all the main conditions about which you can be expected to know, as well as some more detailed knowledge suitable for candidates aiming towards distinction. As in the real exam these papers have no preset pass mark. Whether you pass or fail depends on the distribution of scores across the whole year group, but around 60% should be sufficient.

We hope this book fulfils its aim in being a useful, informative revision aid. If you have any feedback or suggestions, please let us know ([email protected]).

Finally, we would like to thank Stella Mwenechanya, Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist, Wirral University Teaching Hospital, for her help in editing Papers 1 and 2.
