Overseas trained doctors. How to prepare for a fellowship exam.

چکیده
Exam preparation is a stressful time and everyone wants to prepare effectively to do as well as they can. It is a personal challenge that, successfully overcome, carries the reward of peer recognition and acceptance. However, for the overseas trained doctor it is not easy to write a fellowship exam when one is not sure either where or how to start, where to get help and resources, and how to proceed. I encountered many difficulties in preparing for the Fellowship of The Royal Australian College of General Practitioner (FRACGP) exam, and in overcoming these difficulties, thought the knowledge acquired may be useful to others facing the same task.
