Forming part of the best selling and well respected Get Through series, this is an essential revision tool for all candidates preparing for the MRCPsych Part 2 Clinical Examination which consists of two main parts: Individual patient assessment and Structured oral examination (SOA) also known as Patient management problems (PMPs).

Broken down into easy-to read chapters, this text covers all of the different components in the actual exam. Highlighting the areas to be focused on, in order to pass the long case presentation, each task is discussed in detail in the relevant chapters. Candidates are provided with useful recommendations when examining a patient within the time constraints and are offered invaluable tips on how to organise their thoughts before the interview with the examiners. This book will not only allow candidates to prepare for the examination but will also help them to face clinical situations confidently and effectively.

An ideal revision tool for those sitting the MRCPsych examination, this book is also an essential resource for the junior doctor who may have just started psychiatric training. This title is also recommended to all candidates preparing for the MRCPsych examinations, qualified psychologists, psychiatric nurses, social workers and other mental health professionals, wishing to refresh their knowledge.
