In my group, we’ve been practisingfor nearly 3 months and got through a total of 4 different books of cases andother resources and this workbook was by FAR the MOST useful and mostrepresentative of the degree of difficulty of the actual cases in the CSA… Ifyou are going to get 1 book of cases to work for the CSA – get this one!!” “It is clear this is a heavily researched and polished resource. The authorshave tailored its format with great skill to give concise, practical and highyield preparation for the CSA. One of the must have preparation texts for a CSAgroup.

I cannot recommend this book highly enough, and will be doing so to mytrainees.” “This is an excellent book for CSA preparation and I would recommend it toall trainees preparing for the CSA. It is unique from other books in that ithas a large number of cases, all of which are split into GP Curriculumheadings. It is cleverly laid out in separate pages in a folder so thateveryone involved (doctor, patient, observer) have their own sheet… Highlyrecommended book for CSA preparation!” “Simply an excellent book, it was the most useful revision tool out of allrevision aids we used in our CSA revision group – the cases are very similar tothe level in the CSA exam… I also found the list of potential cases good tofill in the gaps of my revision. It is written by GPs who recently passed whounderstand that the key to passing is practicing lots of cases.”.
