FCP EXAM OVERVIEW
The FCP (Fellowship of the College of Physicians of South Africa) examination comprises Part I and Part II: The Part I is valid for six (6) years and Part II must be passed within four (4) years of completing training time.
FCP PART I EXAM:
- 1 paper on Basic Sciences
- 3 hours
- 150 multiple choice questions – (best of 5 format)
The pass mark for the MCQ will be determined using Cohen’s method of standard setting. Using this method the pass mark is determined as a percentage, eg 65% of the 95th percentile of the scores achieved by candidates sitting the examination. Negative marking will not apply, but there will be a “correction for guessing” formula applied. Candidates are therefore encouraged to answer ALL ITEMS in the test.
