What is the RCGP and what do they do?

- By (40 articles)
The RCGP (Royal College of GPs) is the professional body for general (medical) practitioners in the United Kingdom. The MRCGP exam consists of 13 clinical and communication stations between the AKT and the RCA, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Here at IELTS Medical we can provide various resources to help YOU prepare and pass with flying colours even regardless of the disruptions caused by the ongoing events in the world.
Changes to pathway due to pandemic
The GMC MRCGP usually consists of the AKT and the Clinical Skills Assessment, but because of the COVID-19 restrictions you are not able to take it at RCGP head office so the CSA has been replaced by the Recorded Consultations Assessment. For this type of assessment you will have to provide pre-recorded video and audio as evidence to support you have the ability to be a GP. It would be recorded within your workplace and assessed remotely; this is most likely going to be occurring for the foreseeable future.
