Overview
This half-day course, taught by neurology registrars, will help candidates to prepare for the neurology station and potential neurology cases encountered in the MRCP(UK) PACES examination.
The course includes a mixture of short lectures and practical exam stations, mirroring stations 2, 3 and 5 of the PACES exam. Delegates will have the opportunity to examine neurology inpatients and outpatients at each station under exam conditions, with feedback from the examiners.

Here's what our previous delegates have said
"I feel more confident approaching the neurological assessment which will be helpful when I return to acute medicine and sitting PACES"
"Good brief preparation for the upcoming exam. Seeing patients with real signs and having time to fully examine them was really good."
"The diverse range of patients and presentations were fantastic for eliciting signs. The small group format allowed for personalised feedback and there were lots of helpful tips."
