• The examination consists of two written
papers. The time allowed to fully complete
each paper is two hours and thirty minutes
(five hours examining time in total).

The marking split and distribution of
questions are also outlined below.
• Paper 1: 60 SBAs; 30 5-part MCQs
• SBAs = 150 marks
• MCQs = 150 marks
• Paper 2: 60 SBAs; 30 5-part MCQs
• SBAs = 150 marks
• MCQs = 150 marks
![Page 5: Part 1 MRCOG - Basrah Medical · PDF fileThe marking split and distribution of questions are also outlined below. • Paper 1: 60 SBAs; 30 5-part MCQs • SBAs = 150 marks • MCQs](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051008/5a7037807f8b9abb538bbd8a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The SBA section
• The answer sheet is numbered 1-60 and against each number there are five lozenges labelled from A to E. Each question in the question booklet will consist of an option list (lettered to reflect the answer sheet), a lead-in statement (which tells you clearly what to do), and then a list of one to five questions (each numbered, again to match the answer sheet). Indicate your judgment of each particular question by boldly blacking out the letter that corresponds to the single best answer in the option list. Candidates may mark their responses in the question book and then transfer these to the answer sheet. Please be aware that this will take longer, and all transfers must be done fully within the time allowed for the examination.

• The most important element of the format
is that you must select the single answer
that best fits. You may feel that there are
several possible answers, but you must
choose only the most likely one from the
option list.

• Marking: Incorrect answers are not penalised. It is in your best interests to ensure for each of the 60 answers, one lozenge is filled in by the end of the examination. If you mark two or more boxes on the same question, no mark will be awarded, even if one of the answers you choose is the correct one. Please ensure that any mistakes are clearly and fully erased.
• Each correct SBA answer will be worth the same number of marks as 2½ individual correct MCQ answers. Time management is candidate’s responsibility, but we recommend spending approximately 75 minutes on the EMQs and 75 minutes on the MCQs.
