It is absolutely imperative that nobody posts lists of true / false answers for any exam from this book.
I have seen lists on other websites, many of which are incorrect, but this will not be allowed here I'm afraid. It actually contravenes the copyright and is a very dangerous thing to do therefore. No point in getting the Membership and then having your registration taken away
Teale Fenning Medical Education have copyright from the College to run a course aimed at using the questions as a base for further revision. We can do the same here.
The book is a very important publication because for the first time the College are showing us what type of questions they are asking and the level of difficulty.
We all know a significant proportion (an approximate 40%) are repeated but the vast majority are not so you still need to revise!!
I whole heartedly recommend that you consider the topics in the book and read around these. Better still, write your own questions and post them here for us all to have a go at. This will be more productive in the long run.
You know it makes sense!

Can I remind you all and urge you all to read the Terms & Conditions posted above.
I am happy for you guys to post a few questions from the book but I will not allow the whole book to be replicated here. I do not want to be another MRCOG site that has lists and lists of MCQs and proposed answers especially as almost all of the ones I have seen are wrong.
I would prefer you to post a few and then maybe you could write some new ones about the topic. For example, if you are asking about Listeria I suggest you read about the topic and post a series of MCQs for us to consider and answer. Trust me that is the key to doing well. The College will have 60-70% new MCQs each exam but they will be based on the same topics. The more you understand a topic the better you will do.
Hope that makes sense.

I've just been looking at some of your posts and have some concerns.
I do not like or allow people to post lists of questions from the Past Paper book. If you want to discuss pyometra, pruritus vulvae, candida and dentures etc that is fine. Post the question but must discuss the topic and make your own questions up as well.
What do you think the answers are here? Please give us / share with us your opinion and what info you have found when reading about the topic.
This Forum is meant to act as a learning environment and not for lists of T/F answers to the RCOG Book which is copyrighted!!
If I see no evidence of effort on behalf of the poster I will lock or delete the post. By effort I mean that of the original poster and not the regulars on the Forum who always come good and provide us all with info and inform us.
