              paid-for MRCP online revision courses.with large numbers of both old and new examination  
              format."MCQs and Best Of Five".
              However,the number of questions available for part1 are much more than that of part 2 written
              also you might find some of the answers are doubtful.
              but in my opnion.it is a useful revesion material.as it contain large amount of explanatory  
              materials and also it will  familirize you with the style of the examination
 
 
 
            also a paid-for MRCP online revision courses.the questions are very hard and out of contest of 
            the real examination format.
           
            paid-for website

 courses
 
 many doctors who passed the part 1 done so without getting into any course.
 
            MRCP Part 1 written revision course covers the  exam syllabus.it is very popular course       
            although it is an expensive one.it is a revesion course and it is recomended that you plan to
            take the course well before the examination so you will use the course's materials and tips 
            you learnt in the course to revise on your own.
 
            not as popular as the pastest course.
