Re: FCPS or MDFCPS and MD both are post-graduate qualifications. In FCPS, there is well-defined system, time frame and it is well-known. in MD, you are totally dependent on your boss, no schedule, no time frame. MD trainees are taken as "HOME-MAIDS" and they have to do a number of odd things to please their boss.

Re: Re: FCPS or MDWell that's true... FCPS-1 Medicine & Allied has to be passed for FCPS-II training in both Adult Medicine as well as Paeds. Medicine. The books for FCPS I medicine have already been detailed in many previous posts of this forum.
