Medicine is an ever-changing branch. The COVID-19 global crisis has reformatted our concepts and perspectives on the understanding of novel diseases and their treatment, including vaccinations. During the last decade, there has been a robust revolution in smartphones and the internet access industry, and accordingly, both have been reflected in the ways in which postgraduate trainees get their information and study.

Medicine is an ever-changing branch. The COVID-19 global crisis has reformatted our concepts and perspectives on the understanding of novel diseases and their treatment, including vaccinations. During the last decade, there has been a robust revolution in smartphones and the internet access industry, and accordingly, both have been reflected in the ways in which postgraduate trainees get their information and study. My previous books, "Get Through MRCP Part I; BOFs" (published by the Royal Society of Medicine Press in London, 2008), "Mock Papers for MRCPI part I, 2nd Edition" (published by Lulu Press, Inc., USA, 2016), and "Self-Assessment: 650 BOFs for MRCP(UK) and MRCP(I) Part I" (published by Lulu Press, Inc., USA, 2017) have already covered most of the classical examination scenarios and themes. Combined, they create a question bank of approximately 1600 questions. In writing this book, I have tried to focus on the most important updates in medicine that have been emerging during the past decade; novel diseases, novel investigations, and newly approved medications. Needless to say, COVID-19 and its SARS-CoV-2 will be encountered in each chapter, in addition to occupying a unique position in the chapter on infectious diseases. The other aspect that I think is very crucial to tackle is women's health and pregnancy. Once again, such a topic has been addressed in each and every chapter. There are no separate chapters for geriatrics, clinical sciences, and pharmacology (including therapeutics and toxicology); their questions have been distributed throughout the book's chapters. Each answer is followed by an explanation and a reference (source) and/or additional (further) reading. In this way, you can go there; skim the whole subject if you are interested to get more information. Volume II (rheumatology, infectious diseases, endocrinology, etc.) was supposed to be published in the 2nd half of the year 2022. For certain reasons, I stopped drafting it. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. I still believe that this volume (volume I), which has been re-edited (with some updates in 2023), is quite helpful; it will highlight and fill in several gaps in your knowledge. Good luck with your career and exams!
