After a hiatus through the pandemic, the King’s FRCR 2B course is returning!
The course will feature the same great King’s College Hospital faculty and the set-up of this course has been reworked to match the new exam layout.
Please register your interest for our course on 2-3 March 2023
The set-up of this course has been reworked to match the new exam layout.
Using Infomed’s expertise and setup, delegates will attend online using Webex meeting software and cloud based PACS.
The September course would be limited to 12 candidates to maximise the focused attention we can give to you.
The course design, format and content has been created with the help of former FRCR examiners and Consultants interested in teaching and will include:
Four viva sessions (2 hours each)
Sessions are conducted with no more than three candidates and each candidate undergoes a one-to-one viva session with the tutor followed by individual feedback.
Four practice examinations (1hr 15 mins viewing time + 45 mins tutor feedback)
During this session the candidate will analyse rapid reporting and long cases. Following this, candidates have the opportunity to review the cases with the session tutor. At the end of each film viewing session, each candidate will also receive a copy of the proposed model answers for that session. We want to challenge the delegates and will have a wide selection of ‘gold medal’ and Aunt Minnie type cases to help you not only pass but excel in the exam.
The course fee is inclusive of a delegate welcome pack containing answer sheets, a timetable and a helpful ‘hints and tips’ document written with the help of previous FRCR2b examiners.
