Stick to One Anchor Resource

For me, Tintinalli's Emergency Medicine was the key. The manual version was more helpful for IMM, but for FCPS II, the big book—with my sticky notes and underlines—worked best.

Study Strategy

  • Avoid Strict Timetables
    Instead of rigid schedules, align your study plan with your calls. Carry a pocket-size MCQs book to keep your mind engaged during free moments.


  • Textbook + MCQs for Self-Evaluation

    • Prepare a chapter from your anchor textbook.

    • Test yourself using MCQ books like PassTest and Tintinalli's MCQ book.


  • Past Papers are Key

    • Collect as many answered past papers as possible.

    • Plan to revise them a few days before the exam.


  • Stay Connected

    • Join peer discussions or WhatsApp MCQ groups to stay updated and learn from others.

Final Thought

A single exam does not define your hard work or sleepless nights. Believe in yourself—the sky is not the limit! 🚀
