Revision Website For MRCP Launched

Online, August 30, 2011 (Newswire.com) - The UK Royal College of Physicians is one of the oldest medical institutes in the world. Physicians in the UK and commonwealth have to take membership exams for the college as part of their career. The current pass rate for the MRCP is 37% so most take years to gain membership.

There are a range of ways to study including books, courses and podcasts although the majority of people studying for the MRCP exams use online revision websites. Onexamination and Pastest are the two most popular and cost around £100 for 4 months access.

Today saw the launch of http://www.reviseMRCP.com which offers thousands of MRCP revision questions at no cost. All categories of questions that are present in the MRCP exam are represented and range for the science that underpin the clinical medicine to the current guideline recommended treatments that are used in modern hospitals.

This free website has more questions than any of its competitors, is 100% up to date and is optimised for mobile use. You can monitor your progress over time and identify your strengths and weaknesses. A lot of the questions are based on recurring themes identified from previous MRCP exams and a MRCP generator allows you to test yourself in a computer generated MRCP that contains the correct proportion of topics.

Dr Luqhman Khan, consultant psychiatrist, said "The site looks great, the questions are relevant for the exam and it works very well on my iphone."

"We hope that our website helps everyone that is planning to sit the MRCP exam. It is a difficult exam that can become very costly. The BMA calculated that the average doctor pays £2500 to complete the exams and that does not include revision materials and travel expenses."
Dr Tom Walker, director of the website.
