Description
This is a new edition of a highly successful book designed to provide students with advice about how to prepare for and carry out their clinical examinations in general medicine. It covers all parts of these exams the long cases, OSCEs, the viva and the short cases, but concentrates on the latter as this is the part that students find most difficult. As well as giving examples of how to carry out the clinical examination it also lists descriptions of typical cases in each medical specialty and at the end of each chapter lists the key questions that are most frequently asked. The book is illustrated with colour photographs, radiographs, line drawings and cartoons. It is an inexpensive, well-presented book and is proving popular with hard-pressed students as they prepare for their final exams.
