Traditionally, this is the time of the year when our surgical trainees will be doubling up their efforts in the preparation of their upcoming FRCS exit examination in August/September. This is also the time when the Chapter of General Surgery will be conducting the preparation course for our surgical trainees. However, with the current Covid-19 pandemic and government measures, we have moved this preparation course online and the course will be made available via Zoom. This online course will encompass interactive lectures, Question and Answer sessions and Oral Viva, conducted by prominent surgeons and examiners. We hope this free online course can benefit our surgical trainees in these difficult and unpredictable times.
