Yay!

Finally got my MRCP 1 performance details yesterday. Yes, I passed, finally!

I really wanted to know which field I did best....After the exam, I felt I didn't do well in the clinical sciences, clinical pharmacology, infectious diseases (ID), neurology, dermatology, nephrology and respiratory.

Surprisingly, I did very well in ID, pharmacolgy, neuro and nephro. And even more surprising, I scored full marks in dermatology! I also did very well in geriatric medicine...maybe I should think about becoming a COTE specialist.

But I was right, my scores were quite low for the clinical sciences. I didn't do as bad as I thought in ophthalmology and respiratory.

Overall, I'm pretty pleased with the outcome.
Now, to prepare for Part 2.
The pressure is on...coz a lot of people at my stage has already gotten full MRCP.

Delicious Malaysian Food

My trip back home was all about catching up with friends, family and enjoying local food. And that was exactly what I did. Due to our multi-cultural society, we get to enjoy food from a vast variety of food, including chinese, malay, indian, western, japanese, korean etc.
