Candidates are
eligible for the part-1MRCOG examination
when theyhave obtained their medical
degree
Part-1 examinations
are held biannually in March and September.
The
examination is on basic science and
consists of two multiple choice question
(MCQ) papers, each lasting two hours.
The examination embraces those subjects
which form part of the general education
of any specialist and particularly
those aspects which are applicable
to obstetrics and gynaecology.
