Maximizing the Chances of Passing the College Examinations

Abstract

What follows constitutes personal opinions and observations based on almost 10 years as a pre-examination supervisor in Wellington and 6 years on the Examinations Committee of the RANZCP. Having been asked to present this information at the recent ANZAPIT Conference in Wellington, and also quite frequendy less formally, it seemed potentially useful to disseminate the information more widely. I will examine each of the separate components of the examination in order, using the format that has existed for candidates sitting under the 1987 By-laws. Candidates under the 1992 By-laws will need to reorder some of the information.
