Membership of the Royal Colleges of Physicians MRCP UK is a postgraduate medical diploma. The examinations are run by the Federation of the Medical Royal Colleges of the United Kingdom UK &ndash the Royal College of Physicians of London , the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh , and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow . The three Royal Colleges of Physicians share this common three part assessment in general medicine which consists of two written parts and one clinical examination. Examinations are held throughout the UK and in overseas centres. Holders of the MRCP UK can subscribe as collegiate members to any or all of the three UK Royal Colleges of Physicians. There is a separate MRCPI qualification, run by the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland , based in Dublin in the Republic of Ireland. History The three Royal Colleges of Physicians have been holding membership examinations for many years. In the London College the Censors, helped by other examiners, had the duty to carry out the assessment of candidates and advise the College. The MRCP London examination began in 1859 with a numerical marking system devised in 1893. In the late 1960s the need to have a single recognised membership examination throughout the United Kingdom was recognised. Such an examination made it unnecessary for junior doctors to enter several membership examinations and removed the suggestion that the standards of the examination at the three Colleges were different. Aims and content The exam incorporates both examination of the candidate s knowledge of basic medical sciences as well as testing the clinical skills required for the diagnosis and management of disease. Changes to the exam in recent years have put more emphasis on communication skills and professionalism ... the assessment of physicians in training in the UK into line with those training in North ... in other specialities such as radiology, anaesthetics and accident and emergency medicine ... more details
