The current moderator is Dr. Faiza Saeed. These sessions are being o ffered online due to COVID-19.\n\nThe MCCQE Part I is a summative examinat ion that assesses the critical medical knowledge and clinical decision-mak ing 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. Candi dates 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 nationa l standard for medical schools across Canada and\, therefore\, is administ ered at the end of medical school.\n\nThe MCCQE Part I is a one-day\, comp uter-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 afterno on 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.\n\nAIMGA’ s MCCQE1 study groups are offered throughout the year on a quarterly basis . AIMGA provides computer software study materials and other relevant reso urces as a means of preparation (i.e. UWorld\, QBank\, MCC Preparation mat erials).\n\nPlease note it is required that you register here on the websi te before accessing the study session with the following Zoom link:\n\nhtt ps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAlc-Cvrz4oH9ysOVMYw3iKpdiLpEo1sHV7 \n\nAIMGA Calgary Office: 403-520-7730.
