An application for the conjoint examination through the RCSEd must be made in addition to the application through the ABOM. Enquiries about the application process should be directed to theTeam Leader-Examinations Section, Careers Information Services Department, Royal College of Surgeons Edinburgh.
Note: Eligible candidates for the ABOM Diplomate examinations may apply for these (Part A, Part B, Part A&B) without application to the RCS.
Deadline: The applications for the examination must be received by March 1, 2011. A separate application is required for the Royal College of Surgeons Edinburgh fellowship.
