Frcem Final: Clinical Short Answer Question, Volume 1 in Full Colour

I bought this book for my exams and it’s with confidence that I cleared my final exam at the first attempt. Being the only document in the market, I can only applaud Dr Issa's efforts in giving us this support. the book is not perfect, it has some misprints but no scientific document has been perfect, even published articles and websites have some flaws but at least it allows us to prepare our exam effortlessly in a short period of time. it is not enough to just go on the net to read the information for free, it takes a lot more time to read the right information and that's the time we do not have; the author of this book sacrificed himself to spare us from this hard work. I give him 5 stars for his efforts, the curriculum and the quality of the book. he can still improve as he has always done with his other books by updating every it year.Thank you Dr. Issa and thumbs up.I can recommend this book if you want to clear your FRCEM exam.

Time saving since it covers the RCEM curriculum in depth so no need to switch between other books, RCEM website and LITFL etc. But the Americanisms are driving me nuts. Why call paracetamol acetaminophen and adrenaline epinephrine and refer to Medicare and insurance in an English text book written by UK based Doctors for a British based Exam! American's have Tintanelli, please stick to UK terminology!Also needs proof reading for spelling and grammatical errors, better quality paper might improve quality of printed images.But as a quick revision text that covers the curriculum it does a good job.

I bought this book to study for my FRCEM final SAQ exam in September 2019. The book is laid out clearly according to the RCEM curriculum and includes information about all the relevant clinical presentations. Unfortunately, this is where the positive feedback ends. The books are far too long to be revision notes, full of grammatical and spelling errors, poorly laid out and not up to date considering they were only recently published. The worst thing about them, however, is the blatant copying from Free Open Access Medical Education (FOAMED) sites, particularly RCEM Learning, but also life in the fast lane and Radiopedia (among others). Almost all the information available in these books is easily available and freely accessible online and I’d advise you to save your money.

Difficult to say not as expected for such big book , no new knowledge , not update
