Induction Process
Submitting the attested document along with the completed form is mandatory.
Candidates eligible for application must submit their FCPS Part 1 certificate by December 20 for January induction and by June 20 for July induction.
The entrance test for candidates is typically devised and regularly updated by program directors or the CPSP supervisor, often tailored to specific levels and specialties. Completing the FCPS PART 01 Exam Curriculum serves as an illustrative example for the upcoming entrance test.
Although you can submit applications for many specialties at once, each department requires its own set of fees, form and requirement.
Certainly, applicants for multiple specialties will undergo separate examinations, and it’s important to note that the timing for each exam has been modified.
We do not publish results on the website; instead, only shortlisted candidates are invited for an interview. Selection is based on merit, and successful applicants will receive email notifications for interviews within two weeks of the entrance exam.
Kindly provide information about the consultants with whom you collaborated during your house job, medical officer (MO) ship, or training period.
