Maybe this is what they should do for Family Medicine/GP too. Take MRCGP first. Or FRACGP. Then MMed. That way the attrition happens earlier. If cannot even clear MRCGP or FRACGP then no need bother with MMed.

Also means more effort needed to become Family Physician. If it is not worth the effort and hoops then forget about it.

I think right now they dangling the carrots but also feel they dowan to pass everyone.
Huh?
How dare u suggest FM m.med above fracgp or mrcgp.

Anyway, all exit exam are local what save some esoteric field like neurosurgery or pathology
For Ur medical spec, mrcp is intermediate exam, go a few times sure pass
Exit is local exam
For surgery, some like ent just sit mcq nia
Others like Ortho all local exams, the m.med sugery is a formality exam with a half baked dessertation Nia
