Revision Notes for the MRCOG Part 1 1st/2011 Paperback – 1 January 2019 by Arisudhan Anantharachagan (Author) Preface: Never regard study as a duty, but as the enviable opportunity to learn ... for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later work belongs. Albert Einstein, theoretical physicist (1879 -1955) Learn, revise, practise; the triad of exam preparation. There are no shortcuts to knowledge and the principles for success in any exam are the same. Royal College membership examinations are no exception. Most textbooks tend, by nature and out of necessity, to be verbose. Put simply, for one to under¬stand a topic it needs to be explained. For revision purposes, however, it is necessary only for the key knowledge points to be present. This is where notes come in handy. Notes serve as a map of infor¬mation that needs to be remembered. The effectiveness and quality of note-taking methods are highly variable. Inevitably some facts will not be identified during revision. This leads to lost points in the exam and can make the difference between passing and failing. This book offers a backbone for revision; 'the perfect notes that one would make if they had all the necessary information and time available to do so'. With the curriculum at its core (found ) it will provide you with a guide to your revision. It is a high yield revision book that includes the knowledge and facts needed to pass the MRCOG part 1 exam and brings together the required fundamentals of all the basic sciences. Nevertheless, we would encourage you to annotate and draw in the margins of the book, thus personalizing your 'revision notes' to suit your own needs and learning style. Effectively, we would like you to turn it in to your very own 'perfect' aide memoire. The book aims to be 'user friendly', making the task of finding and revising information easy. There are sections covering each of the basic sciences required. Information is concise with facts presented in visually easy to remember formats, such as boxes, flow diagrams, figures, and lists.
