Media Reviews

Review from previous edition 'I was one of the original guinea pigs for the SJT. If I had this book before I sat the exam I would have aced it. This book shows you exactly what the markers are looking for, where to find valuable pre-reading material and the practice questions are impressively like those in the real SJT.' * Mubeen Iqbal, FY1, North Central Thames Deanery *
'An excellent book that I would recommend to other students. It certainly has made the exam feel less daunting and I feel more prepared having used this book.' * Raymand Pang, 4th year Med Student, Warwick University *
Having done the SJT I feel that this is the best resource available. * Amazon customer review *
When it comes to providing questions that represent the SJT there is no better book. * Amazon customer review *
