Two complete mock exams. One weekend in London.
We’re excited to announce PrepMedico’s first face-to-face FRCS General Surgery Section 2 mock examination—a full simulation designed to bring you as close as possible to the real exam experience.
One of the common reasons for failure, despite good knowledge and thorough preparation, is the challenge of facing the examiners face to face on the day of the exam. So train yourself. Test yourself—not once, but twice—before you go to the real exam!
The London FRCS General Surgery Mock gives you the opportunity to put your preparation to the test, receive individual feedback and apply it in a second complete mock the following day.
16–17 January 2027
Whittington Health NHS Foundation Trust, London
Across the weekend:
• Two complete mock examinations, with six viva stations per mock and real exam timings.
• Twelve formal viva encounters, totalling 6 hours 40 minutes of one-to-one viva examination.
• Ten minutes of examiner feedback after every station.
• Different examiners on Sunday, giving you a fresh assessment.
• A faculty of 14–16 experienced examiners.
• RCSEd CPD points and a certificate.
Only 20 participant places. Registration opens on 8 November 2026.

FRCS SBA of the day
23-year-old man, renal transplant 8 months ago (induction; tacrolimus, MMF, prednisolone). Fever, weight loss, generalised lymphadenopathy; CT: extensive lymphadenopathy and extranodal bowel-wall lesions.
Correct answer: D — Epstein–Barr virus.
PTLD is strongly associated with EBV-driven B-cell proliferation, especially in EBV-seronegative recipients with primary EBV infection after transplant; immunosuppression reduces T-cell surveillance.
FRCS SBA of the day
86-year-old man, incidental 6.8-cm infrarenal AAA. CTA: short, severely angulated 14-mm neck, extensive calcification, small tortuous iliacs. Standard EVAR not anatomically suitable.
Correct answer: D — Specialist vascular assessment + shared decision-making; conservative management likely if risks of repair outweigh benefit.
6.8 cm meets the size criterion, but NICE weighs anatomy, age, life expectancy, fitness and comorbidity against rupture risk.
FRCS SBA of the day
An 82-year-old man has 4 days of RUQ pain, fever and vomiting. CT: markedly distended, thick-walled gallbladder with inflammatory change and an impacted stone in the gallbladder neck. No CBD dilatation.
Correct answer: C — Percutaneous cholecystostomy.
Early lap chole is usually preferred (NICE: within 1 week), but he has ongoing gallbladder sepsis despite treatment and is unfit for GA. Cholecystostomy gives source control without immediate GA.
FRCS SBA of the day
A 72-year-old man with diabetes and CKD has 2 days of worsening left-foot pain. Forefoot swollen and red, great toe black, foot cool beyond midfoot. No pedal pulses or Doppler signal; femoral pulse present.
Correct answer: D — Discuss urgently with the receiving vascular service and transfer for immediate vascular assessment.
This is a threatened ischaemic limb until proven otherwise: no pedal Doppler signal, tissue loss and a cool foot make perfusion the priority.
