Final M.B. Examination (Revised Regulations)

(Statutes and Ordinances, p. 434)

With immediate effect

The regulations have been amended to take account of minor revisions in the structure of the examination as set out below. A temporary regulation has been introduced to enable candidates who have failed to satisfy the Examiners in either Part I of the Final M.B. Examination or the written paper components of Part II to be re-examined at an additional sitting of the examination to be announced by the Faculty Board.

Regulation 3(f).

By replacing in line 1 the word 'attachments' by the word 'placements'.

Regulation 12(b).

By deleting the last sentence from this regulation.

Regulation 15.

By amending the final sentence for Part I so as to read:

The Examiners at their discretion may examine any candidate for distinction viva voce.

Regulation 23.

By inserting the following final sentence:

The Faculty Board shall appoint for each clinical examination such numbers of persons as they deem sufficient to act as Clinical Assessors, who shall provide marks and comments to the appointed Examiners.

Regulation 25.

By deleting from the last line the words 'merit or'.

Regulation 26.

By replacing in line 1 the words 'Each Senior Examiner' by the words 'The Chairman of Examiners'.

Temporary Regulation

30. Notwithstanding the provisions of Regulation 14, the Faculty Board may announce, after consultation with the Board of Examinations, additional sittings of Part I and the written paper components of Part II in any one year, provided that the Faculty Board shall give sufficient notice of such an additional sitting that no candidate shall be disadvantaged.
