Comprehensive preparation

Orthopaedic trainees are busy and finding the time to revise for postgraduate exams alongside clinical training, social/family lives, and interests outside work can be a challenge. Our aim is to make the process more bearable with clear, relevant and succinct revision content. The material in this question bank has been carefully developed to ensure it aligns with the core FRCS Trauma and Orthopaedic exam syllabus and the content of the FRCS Part 1 exam.

Representative, high-quality material

The FRCS Tr & Orth exam does require routine memorisation, however most questions have clear clinical relevance and this has been replicated in our question bank. The questions and explanations have been written by practicing orthopaedic surgeons, and relevant sections are supplemented by questions from anatomists, scientists, bioengineers, statisticians and an epidemiologist.

Categorised content

To help organise your learning questions have been separated according to the key categories of the Trauma and Orthopaedic curriculum. Common topics receive the most attention and explanations include references to key papers where they are useful. Questions can be answered within a single category or across the whole bank.
