Short Answer Questions
The past SAQs from 1999 onwards are listed, grouped by topic. Easily access the related Examiner’s Report and model answers from the Propofol Dreams, Amanda Diaz and Ketamine Nightmares websites, and also any user submitted model answers. Generate a random SAQ paper to test yourself.
Multiple Choice Questions
This section comprises of remembered MCQs, compiled from various sources including the Kerry Brandis website. Answers and reasons are crowd sourced. The point is not to rote learn answers, but to use them as a test of your general knowledge and a starting point to read around the topic.
Vivas
This section compiles the opening questions/viva topics that are published in the Examiner’s Reports. Anything that can be an SAQ can also be asked in the vivas, though the peripheral topics seem to be examined more often in the vivas, probably because more core topics come out in the SAQs. This will give you an idea of common questions, though to prepare for the vivas, you really need to just do lots of practice vivas after the written.
My Resources
Gather together and store any useful documents, articles, notes, pictures, etc, that you come across. Kind of like a study related dropbox.
Study Notes
This section contains some of my own notes and can be used to quickly revise a topic or test yourself. Do not rely solely on one source of information. There is no substitute to reading around a topic, using multiple resources, and writing your own notes.
Study Plan
My objective with this section is to encourage you to properly consider how much of a time commitment you need to make to prepare for this exam. Plan out your study timetable. Stick to it!
Tutors Corner
