Hi guys!How did it go?
My view about the exams is that,the quetions where standard ofcourse.Some of them were repeated from previous exam quetions,others where modifications of the usual themes.In all decision making in both emergency and outpatient scenarios featured prominently particularly in surgery and psychiatry.
