Crash Course 1000 SBAs for Finals and the MLA – Medicine and Surgery is one of two complementary SBA-style titles crafted to prepare medical students for their finals and the MLA exam. Each volume includes well over 1000 test questions and features mock exams that mimic the format of the MLA and medical final exams. This volume, focussing on general medicine and surgical specialties, has been divided into 15 commonly tested areas to facilitate thorough and efficient revision by specialty. Its counterpart, Crash Course 1000 SBAs for Finals and the MLA – Clinical Specialties, covers a broad spectrum of clinical Specialties.

Questions are grouped by medical specialty and categorised by their role in the curriculum (Essential/Important/Supplementary), as well as by difficulty (Easy/Moderate/Hard). Every question includes a clear answer and an extended explanation for each answer option to enable you to quickly understand your strengths and weaknesses and to learn effectively from any mistakes. Each printed volume also comes with BONUS access to the complete, enhanced eBook - this allows you to read as a 'regular', downloadable eBook, as well as to test yourself via the interactive-quiz function. Whether you need to get out of a fix or aim for a distinction Crash Course is for you!
