AIMGA is having this QE2 Study Group facilitated by Dr. Bruce Fisher for those who have proof of registration for the QE2 in May/June.

Day: Tuesday
Time: 6 pm to 9 pm
Start Date: March 30th
End Date: May 11th

*This class is full*

Additional class: We have 8 registrants available for Tuesdays from 1-4pm. If you have proof of registration and are available during this time, please contact Monica. If we can get another 4+ registrants, we will have a class from April 6th to May 11th. Alternatively, we are looking at having other clinical workshops from April to mid-May for those preparing for the upcoming QE2.

The Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Exam Part 1 Study Group is facilitated by a moderator to assist IMGs to prepare for this examination. The current moderator is Dr. Nuruddin Lakhani. These sessions are being offered online due to COVID-19.

The MCCQE Part I is a summative examination that assesses the critical medical knowledge and clinical decision-making ability of a candidate at a level expected of a medical student who is completing his or her medical degree in Canada. The examination is based on the MCC Objectives, which are organized under the CanMEDS roles. Candidates graduating and completing the MCCQE Part I normally enter supervised practice. Aside from formal accreditation processes of the undergraduate and postgraduate education programs, the MCCQE Part I is the only national standard for medical schools across Canada and, therefore, is administered at the end of medical school.

The MCCQE Part I is a one-day, computer-based test. Candidates have four hours in the morning to complete 210 Multiple-Choice Questions and up to three and a half hours in the afternoon for the Clinical Decision-Making component, which consists of 38 cases with short-menu and short-answer write-in questions. For specialist IMGs, the QE1 requires a complete review of all areas of medicine.

AIMGA’s MCCQE1 study groups are offered throughout the year on a quarterly basis. AIMGA provides computer software study materials and other relevant resources as a means of preparation (i.e. UWorld, QBank, MCC Preparation materials).
