| Popis: | Aim Surgical training experiences differ across Foundation Programme (FP) and Core Surgical Training (CST) deaneries in the UK. We, therefore, assessed whether MRCS success is associated with FP and CST deaneries. Method UK FP (n=553) and CST (n=1104) trainees who attempted MRCS over a three-year period were included. Chi-squared tests examined univariate associations. Multivariate logistic regression identified the likelihood of MRCS success depending on deanery, adjusted for socio-demographic factors. Results MRCS Part A success was associated with FP deanery (P Conclusions MRCS success is associated with FP and CST deanery; however, MRCS performance does not correlate with subjective assessment of teaching or training quality. Academic ability likely has a larger impact on MRCS performance than training experiences with the more popular deaneries attracting the highest performing candidates. These results will be of interest to trainees, trainers, and training deaneries. |
