The syllabus for the FRCS (ORL-HNS) is vast, and sound preparation for the exams has traditionally involved assimilating knowledge from a wide range of sources. This book provides a focused guide for exam candidates. More than a question and answer book, this book is a coaching manual. Each section features a combination of model answers, pearls of wisdom, checklists and pointers for further reading. Detailed advice is provided for both Part 1 and Part 2 of the examination. Viva topics that have featured in the exam in recent years have been included. and are supplemented by invaluable editorial contributions from leaders in each of the subspecialties.Trainees frequently comment that exam preparation is an enlightening process and the knowledge gained would have served them well during their time as an ENT registrar or Otorhinolaryngology resident.This book will also serve as a valuable learning tool for trainees as early as ST3 and will facilitate the development of effective and safe clinical practice.
