HALL: WS5
The academic section of the FEBVS exam generates more anxiety among candidates than any other section. This WS covers what a Vascular Surgical Trainee needs to know about critically reviewing and understanding the quality of published vascular surgical literature. The workshop will explain how to review a paper and discuss your findings and opinions; specifically aimed at the academic section of the FEBVS exam. The workshop consists of a lecture delivered by well-respected vascular surgical colleagues with plenty of time for questions and answers throughout the workshop. Attendees will undergo a mock exam station, reviewing a manuscript, taking notes and discussing the manuscript with Faculty. The workshop is a must for trainees sitting professional exams (eg FEBVS).
It is strongly recommended that you consider registering for all the workshops below. This is because the Clinical and Academic viva-voce stations are an integral and challenging part of the FEBVS exam. A good performance in all exam stations is essential to maximise your chances of passing. The workshops are tried and tested to improve attendees chances of success."
