Final FRCA Exam
Final FRCA Exam
The Final FRCA examination currently consists of written (CRQ + SBA) and viva (SOE) components, with content mapped to the RCoA's Intermediate Curriculum.
As an exam, the Final FRCA is mercifully much more grounded in clinical practice than the science-heavy Primary.
However, it still covers a broad range of topics and all the material from the Primary FRCA exam remains examinable.
