Our online Question Bank is a growing up-to-date resource boasting more than 8000 questions. You get access to MCQs, EMIs, answers, explanations, and references for further revision, lecture notes (smart revise notes) covering a wide range of topics relevant to the exam with an exhaustive coverage of all topics prescribed in the RCPsych syllabus for each paper and a continuously expanding Question Bank. The questions were prepared after extensive appraisal of the new exam pattern in recently conducted exams.

Many other courses do what is easy for them -e.g. they cut out EMIs from their online Q bank, don't provide evidence for controversial answers or don't write meticulously condensed revision notes. SPMM provides you a one-stop all-inclusive revision aid. Our starter packages come with answers, explanations and references in addition to full lecture notes so you don't have to look elsewhere. Furthermore, unlike other courses who randomize same questions to provide a 'pseudo-mock exam', our booster (mock exam) package has completely different questions from our starter package, so you get the real feel of taking the exam.

Our SmartRevise notes are the only resource that is purpose-written in strict accordance with the College's prescribed syllabus for your exam. You can build your entire revision around them, and there will be no need to buy chunky textbooks. Without these notes, you may have to read different sections of a number of various textbooks or journal articles to feel prepared. The SmartRevise notes are extensively referenced, peer reviewed and closely aligned with the prescribed syllabus for various papers. Wherever possible we have included key research studies and relevant review articles.

All of our notes are now PRINTABLE. The SmartRevise notes relevant to the topic that you revise will appear on the screen as a linked PDF file. You can print it whenever required.

Starter packages provide access to our comprehensive study materials (SPMM SmartRevise ©) and subject-based question banks with evidence-based answers and explanations (SPMM HiYield ©). You will have six months access to these resources from the date of purchase.

Booster Packages provide access to SPMM mock exams - our practice tests that revolutionized the MRCPsych exam preparation since their introduction. These are excellent simulations of the real exam prepared on the basis of the exam blueprint - not a randomised set of questions picked by a computer programme. Booster (Mock) Package subscription will give you access to six individual practice papers, all made of reconstructed questions from the most recent exams. Mock exams are meant for self-assessment when you feel sufficiently prepared for the exams. Mocks allow you to identify your weakest areas before the actual exam. You can take the exams any number of times, till you get it right!! Please note that lecture notes are not available with mock exams (booster pack).

Our face to face course (based in London) is modelled to provide a revision of all themes that are known to be included in the college Question Bank. It offers an intense one-stop revision with the recalled, past exam questions. It is reputed for its intensity, clarity and coverage of details required for passing the exam comfortably. In addition, you get the detailed explanatory teaching of concepts that are repeatedly tested in the exams. SPMM is the only course which concentrates on teaching the concepts that will help the candidate face new questions, instead of running through a bunch of questions. You can be assured that you know the answers for a significant proportion of questions that may tilt the scales from a FAIL to a PASS in few weeks' time! We are enjoying substantially higher pass rates diet by diet - no matter how low the College pass rates are: Our face to face course candidates always fares better.

We have taken into account the extensive preparation needed for paper B critical appraisal modules. Our critical appraisal modules deliver MCQ oriented theory and not irrelevant, complex biostatistics. Our statistics module teaches problem-based statistics - i.e. applying statistical knowledge to solve journal vignettes. This pattern of testing is clearly reflected in the recently introduced paper B exam.

Materials will be updated, and new questions including previous exam questions will be added whenever they become available, and this is usually once or twice a year for each paper.

The mock exam and high yield questions are carefully constructed such that same questions do not repeat in both resources. A handful of important themes that appeared several times in the exams may be included in both often with some variation in choices or explanations. Hence some overlap between High Yield course questions and mock exams are unavoidable.

Classroom course and online course are separate products. Therefore it is not possible to swap courses.
