  This is a book intended primarily for those preparing for their final clinical examination in General Surgery. It is an exam-oriented book intended to alleviate some of the suffering of the nail-biting weeks just prior to the final exam. It covers only the clinical part of the exam - examined as short and long cases, OSCEs as well as viva - and approaches the usual surgical problems from that perspective. It concentrates on the type of questions asked by the examiners and how to respond in a way that will give the candidate the best chance of success.
