Fellowship of the Royal College of Anaesthetists (FRCA) exam revieq E&D

Fellowship of the Royal College of Anaesthetists (FRCA) exam met the “minimum standards” for equality and diversity “but improvements are required.” The BMA has called for greater transparency around variations in performance across different groups of candidates in membership exams for medical royal colleges.
