Hi bro I going to be graduate next month and planing to do act/erpm16 plz bro can you give me the procedure and some importent tips..? thanx a lot.
Macho even i'm gonna graduate in december this year.Just contact "Drugs" cos he just sat for the act 16 & cleared it last month
All I know that there are 3 theory papers 1 containing Community med,the 2nd containing Patho & Forensics & the 3 rd paper for gen Med,Surgery,OBG & Peads combined.All are MCQ questions with negative marks.
You need to clear all 3 papers before you can appear for the practical exam.If you dnt clear any theory paper,you can only appear for only that paper, 3 months later
in pracs,u'l have a viva for Emergency medicine,Patho & Com med & a clinical examination for all 4 finl yr subjects all on the same day.You'l get 1 long case & 2 short case per subject & u have to pass each final year subject seperately in Pracs(Med,Sur,Peads & OBG) or u'l have to repeat all 4 subjects again if you even fail in one.howeverthis doesn't apply to com med & patho& emergency med vivas as they will be held on a seperated day,about 1 week before the clinical exam
You have to apply for the exam from the Med council in Norris canal rd & there are coaching classes being held throught colombo to prepare for act 16 exam which increases r chances of passing
I hope I was helpful enough.PM me if you need to know anything more
