Questions from readers regarding MRCS Part A/B and FRCS General surgery

Hi Sir , Saw your post in LGS about FRCS .

Just wanted to ask 1 doubt.

Myself , i completed MS General surgery and i am working here in india as Asst Prof since past 5 years.

I wish to relocate to UK.

My ultimate aim is to become a consultant there .

However , i could find that there are 2 boards of FRCS and international FRCS is not of much importance when it comes to working in UK .

Is it true sir?

Anyways i decided to appear for MRCS PART A now due to this .

But if i am wrong , i will prepare for FRCS from here itself

Can u please guide me regarding this 🙏

Response: If relocation to the UK is your priority, clear MRCS A and B first, then IELTS, get GMC registration, get a training job (matching your experience level) , and then give FRCS General Surgery there...
