MRCP is a certification by Royal College of Physicians (UK) or MRCP (I) from Ireland. Please note that this is not a Degree, it may be best described as a path to a specialist degree. After passing the part 1, 2 exams one has to get a specialist registrar (SpR) post. Once two years have elapsed on a SpR post the doctor can appear for CCST (certificate of completion of specialist training). Only those doctors who have earned the CCST qualification can be considered as Specialists in Medicine and eligible for consultant post.

MRCP examination consists of two divisions.

Part one is theory and can be taken by anyone having a basic medical degree. The only precondition is eighteen months should have elapsed since that doctor was awarded MBBS degree. The full regulations for part one can be downloaded here (pdf file), In the past few years almost all applicants for SHO Internal Medicine have cleared the first part written ostensibly to improve their CVs.

Part 2 of this test has both theory in form of and clinical exam (PACES). This can be attempted generally after one has completed a period of training in UK.
