FRCA Final FFICM Exam, MCQ and VIVA (SOE and OSCE) Dual CCT doctors must pass the Final FRCA and FFICM Exams in order to move into the respective specialty’s Stage 3. That is, in order to commence the Stage 3 clinical placement the relevant Final exam must be passed, e.g. doctors must pass the Final FRCA to do Stage 3 Anaesthetics and similarly must pass the FFICM to undertake the Stage 3 ICM year. This allows training to progress if one of the Final exams is not completed. |
