MRCP is well establised as an entry exam for advanced specialist training in many countries including Malaysia. It consists of 3 paper i.e. Part1, Part2(written tests) and PACES.
PACES in full means Practical Assessment of Clinical Examination Skills. It is the third part and the candidate is assessed by fellows of RCP.
I passed my PACES in 2005. I am glad that many seniors had guided me throughout my preparation for PACES and I wish to share my experiences with PACES candidates via this blog.

MedicAlert
Look for this MedicAlert bracelet in every patient in PACES. It might be your lifesaver on your PACES day!
Believe me, the 2nd picture show the exact diagnoses for the patient! "Complex Congenital Cyanotic Heart disease"!
Hi jessada, medical alert jewelries are worn by many people with health conditions such as allergies to certain medications, epilepsies or heart lesions which warrant important decision making in health care management to doctors. It also provide some information to other 3rd parties such as the bystander (the public) when acute events happen to the wearer.
I do not know what health condition you have, but you can always get one from your local health care authorities if it's indicated :)
