The Final FRCA Constructed Response Questions (2^nd Ed.)
A Practical Study Guide
MasterPass Series

This up-to-date study guide for the Final FRCA CRQ comprises questions based on every topic examined in the Royal College of Anaesthetists' (RCoA) Final written exam from the past 12 years. It therefore covers the areas of the syllabus that are key to exam success, offering factual learning and the opportunity to practise CRQ-style questions, with chapters that reflect the RCoA syllabus format to help organise learning.

The inclusion of diagrams and additional commentary ensure that that this book will help candidates to learn rather than just providing a list of suggested model answers. Advice is offered about revision approaches, best sources of learning for the examination and guidance on structuring answers, which will support exam success in all parts of the Final FRCA. This resource will save hours of work for anaesthetists preparing for the Final FRCA.
