MRCP(UK) PACES Diary #4

Just watched Night Train, an excellent suspense movie starring Danny Glover and Leelee Sobieski. It has this long-lost noir feel with a supernaturalistic touch. Very satisfying movie from start to finish. Perfect antidote to the strain of exam.

It’s been quite a week. We are spending the mornings and arvos practicing history taking and communication skills. The nights are occupied with quiet isolated study, reading up on the various theoretical aspects of clinical medicine. Will plan to make visits to the hospital making sure our examination techniques do not go rusty.

I also had a chance to go through a copy of Pastest’s very own Success in PACES 2nd edition, a comprehensive revision book for MRCP(UK) PACES. Completely revamped and added with new and improved material on Station 2 and 4, I would thoroughly recommend it to any serious PACES candidate. Furthermore, Dr Douglas Macdonald, who is the co-author of this new edition, is one formidable PACES instructor. His input on history taking and communication skills is incomparable. My advice: buy this book.
