Revision Notes for the MRCOG Part 1 (Oxford Specialty Training: Revision Texts)

I bough this book for my brother and he is loving it. Nice and neat for the price.

I enjoyed it

Most helpful book ...I advise everyone to get it.

Good

Pages were missing from this book

Excellent guide for candidates who want to appear for MRCOG.

I bought this book having failed the exam the first time around. Using this and a few other resources, I studied it pretty thoroughly. I felt this book covered a lot of the more obscure stuff - embryological equivalent of Wharton's jelly being a perfect example (came up before; I had no idea...) No book is ever going to cover everything but this one is a great buy for those studying for mrcog 1. The lay out is sparse, without fancy images or glossy pages, but I found that it covered exactly what was needed, all in bullet-point format. I thought the anatomy, genetics and physiology chapters were particularly strong. Overall an excellent book, though I did supplement with other exam prep items.

Good book. Useful

Unfortunately I spent a small fortune on books for Part 1, you shouldn't make the same mistake! You obviously NEED "the green book" of past papers, familiarity with this is your main revision tool. Otherwise, I ended up using just this book and Wikipedia - passed first time! It is very concise, with easy to understand bullet points and diagrams. Pretty sure I wouldn't have passed without it.

Very concise with a lot of info, easy to carry around, easier to digest than the burgundy book but you need to have vised before so that you can revise from this, still doesnt cover everything but what does
