FAQs

What is the structure of MRCEM exams?

MRCEM is a three-level examination comprising MRCEM Primary, MRCEM Intermediate, and MRCEM OSCE.

Where may test candidates take it?

RCEM employs Pearson VUE, a provider of computer-based testing, to administer its written exams globally. On the Pearson VUE website, you may look for a testing location close to you.

Will it still count as an attempt if the candidates don't appear for the exam?

No, simply taking the exam counts as an attempt. If you don’t show up, your absence will be noted and your money will be forfeited.

When are the results available to candidates?

Five weeks following the examination date, results will be made public. Candidates’ College website accounts will get the results, and they can download the results letters whenever they want. The release or confirmation of exam results over the phone or email is not permitted.

How do you book the exam?

During the specified application time, candidates must submit their online exam applications. On the morning of the application opening date indicated on the exam calendar, applications will open and conclude automatically. Late submissions won’t be accepted; applications must be submitted before the deadline.

Can I work in the UK after MRCEM?

You can apply for full registration with a practice license if you have completed all sections of the FRCEM or MRCEM. After the GMC has granted approval to your application, you may practice medicine in the UK.

Is MRCEM a post-graduate qualification?

MRCEM is a postgraduate degree recognized by the GMC and the most practical route for emergency medicine specialists practicing abroad to become GMC-registered.

Can I do MRCEM after MBBS ?

The sole requirement for taking the MRCEM Part A (FRCEM PRIMARY) test is a current MBBS pass certificate. However, two years of work experience in the emergency department following MBBS is a requirement for MRCEM PART B & C (FRCEM INTERMEDIATE).

Do I need to pass IELTS for the MRCEM exam?

The MRCEM OSCE is held in English, and applicants are informed that an IELTS score of 7 is required to pass both the MRCEM and FRCEM exams. But it’s not mandatory to pass IELTS as a prerequisite for MRCEM exams.
