English language was compulsory. Most students came from vernacular schools.
When we wrote English compositions, we must write the plan of the composition on
top of the answer paper.
If the plan is not written, one receives only zero mark.
The plan will consist of

Conclusion
Till I passed my fellowship exam, I followed this procedure.
This not only helped me to get into medical college, but also to excel in the
Fellowship exam.
Before answering the questions, please ALSO read the guide line attachments that I
send you at the beginning of the course.
Please follow them meticulously and rewrite the answers.
The purpose of the course is not only to train to excel in the problem solving
questions, but also to excel in the Viva and Clinical examinations.
Imagine the patient is in front of you and write, in essay form, exactly how YOU
would manage YOUR patient.
Please write the answers in first person as though you are answering the examiner
in the clinical examination, eg I shall ask the patient.. , I will do a CAT scan
because ..
In your introduction, you must write what come to your mind soon as you have read
the question. If possible you must be able to impress the examiner with one sentence.
You can write something like this, "From the history and clinical symptoms and
signs of Mr. ., my first impression is that."
In the conclusion, you can write, "I an quite positive I will see a happy patient in 2
weeks because "
If you can remember and follow all the guideline in the exam, it will definitely
increase your chance of passing.
Practice now, Excel later.
Practice the Rule of 5 again and again and learn to shoot your answers. This must
reflect in yur answer.
If you can do that in the viva and clinical examination you will flabbergast the
examiners.
Practice, practice, practice.
Follow all the guidelines and instructions and please rewrite your answer.
Dear Mahgy,
The plan I have suggested is for you to follow to write perfect answer.
In the introduction, you write your first impression on reading the
question. This is to make a good first impression on the examiner.
In conclusion, you write how the patient will be with your
management.
With best wishes

Respected sir,
I have PASSED the FRCSG at Hyderabad. Sorry for not having informed you
earlier. I had come for a social service program directly from Hyderabad to a rural
part of North india. I dont have any Internet facility here. Only today i found an
internet facility. I just thought i should inform you and thank you. I will be coming
back to Chennai after a few weeks. I shall definitely get in touch with you once iam
back.
I should thank you for your guidance and being patient with me as i think i was the
most irregular student in your course.
Thanking you once again sir,
Regards,
B. Praveen Kumar
