Description‘FCPS Success Series’ is not only a collection of all questions usually crammed by candidates, but it is also a real pool of BCQs in all specialties of FCPS exam. Practising BCQs is an integral part of preparation before appearing in any examination nowadays. This book has been designed to practise questions alongwith explanations of answers. Not only that, ‘FCPS Success Series’ is the first book of its kind which offers online subscription so that a candidate may get the most of practise sessions.Passing the first component of FCPS exam is essential to be inducted into postgraduate clinical trainings in our country. According to the recent exam pattern of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, FCPS Part 1 examination is divided into two components. The first component is basic sciences common to all clinical specialties and the second component is specific to that particular subject of interest. The questions are clinical scenario based, which mainly test the basic knowledge of a candidate. There may also be questions which have a direct theme checking factual knowledge. While compiling ‘FCPS Success’ Series, it was ensured that all questions have an authentic key with vivid explanations. This way, a student may not only practise questions, but explanations would strengthen the core concepts with better understanding. The emphasis remains on the facts and concepts related to basic sciences with enhanced knowledge.We have sought references and explanations from authoritative books of all basic subjects, namely, Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry, Histology, Pathology, Pharmacology and those of specialities: Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Anaesthesia, Community Medicine, Dentistry. All this would not have been possible without the constant support of teachers, fellows and colleagues who provided everything needed to produce this purposeful effort.
