What this course included

Like every North of England FRCS course, this cohort followed our established two-day, exam-replica format:

• A full circuit of exam-replica viva stations across the General Surgery curriculum
• A one-to-one / two-to-one examiner ratio under exam conditions
• Structured, candidate-specific feedback after every station
• Subspecialty breakouts and clinical case practice
• A calibrated faculty of consultant and recently-successful surgeons

Faculty vary by cohort and are drawn from consultant and subspecialty surgeons across the North of England, alongside recently-successful candidates and post-CCT fellows. Meet the named faculty →
