MRCP UK EXAM FORMAT

-
The MRCP(UK) Diploma consists of three examinations: Part 1 written examination, Part 2 written examination, and Part 2 clinical examination (PACES). The MRCP(UK) Diploma is awarded on completion of all three parts of the examination.
Part 1 and Part 2 written examinations are multiple choice (‘best-of-five’ format) papers. The Part 2 clinical examination is the Practical Assessment of Clinical Examination Skills (PACES).
Marking system for the Part 1 and Part 2 written examinations Candidates’ overall results are calculated using a process called equating. This is a statistical process based on Item Response Theory, and it is used to ensure that candidates receive comparable results for comparable performance in different diets of the examination. Please refer to the MRCP(UK) website for details of the process and specific pass marks: https://www.mrcpuk.org/mrcpukexaminations/results/exam-pass-marks

The marking system is as follows:
• One mark (+1) is awarded for each correct answer; 
• No mark is deducted for an incorrect answer (i.e. there is no negative marking); • No mark is awarded or deducted if a question is left unanswered;
 • No mark is awarded if more than one answer is recorded or the answer is not sufficiently clear
Marking system for Part 2 Clinical examination In PACES, candidates are assessed on their ability to carry out essential clinical skills. There are five clinical stations where there are either patients with a given condition, or trained stand-ins (surrogate patients). At each station, there are two independent examiners. To pass, candidates must attain a minimum standard in each of the seven skills and also a minimum total score across the whole assessment. Please refer to the MRCP(UK) website for details of the process and specific pass marks: https://www.mrcpuk.org/mrcpuk-examinations/results/exam-pass-marks :

New in 2020:
Online computer based exam in a few centres and countries. Still paper based exam in most of the countries.
