Riassunto

EMQs are an increasingly popular method of assessing how broad a knowledge of medicine an undergraduate student has acquired. They can, however, be difficult to prepare for, and the best way to build understanding and confidence is with practice.
EMQs in Clinical Medicine is an invaluable revision book which presents 100 key EMQs covering the main fields of medicine and surgery. The questions and answers are structured to reflect accurately the themes encountered in exam conditions. Each field is accompanied by a revision section which summarises key points and cross-references them to questions for revision purposes.

Pharmacology questions are threaded throughout the book where relevant, mirroring the integrated teaching methods common in most medical schools.
