MCAI/FCAI/Malaysian Parralel Pathway Assessment Question Bank

Dr Wong Yin Fatt (currently still of Hospital Melaka) and I are in the process of making a compilation of past questions for reference of other people to study.

If any of you have compilations that we’re not aware off, you may share them with either of us for inclusion.

Thanks!
