What is Emergency Medicine Multiple Choice Questions (EM.MCQ)?

The best way to prepare for multiple choice question exams is to practice MCQs. Emergency Medicine Multiple Choice Questions is the best tool for practicing, collecting and writing MCQs in emergency medicine.

Emergency Medicine Multiple Choice Questions (EM.MCQ) is a windows based multiple choice question database, editor and study tool. It includes over 1000 MCQ covering topics in Emergency Medicine from major current texts (References).

EM.MCQs user interface is easy and intuitive to use, allowing quick and efficient study.

The range of question difficulties will suit medical students, residents and emergency medicine trainees. In particular trainees preparing for the Australasian College for Emergency Medicine (ACEM) fellowship exam will find it very useful.

Users can access these questions in several easy to use formats. A full range of options is available to choose questions by question type (simple completion, multiple completion and true/false), difficulty and topic areas. They can be practiced in un-timed study or timed quizzes.

Emergency Medicine Multiple Choice Questions remembers which questions you get right and which ones you get wrong, assigning a greater difficulty to those questions incorrectly answered. In this way the difficulty rating for each question is constantly adjusted, allowing users to select and focus on problem areas.

Images of pathology results, X-rays, ECGs and illustrations can be linked to the questions or notes of MCQs to add a visual component to the learning process. The question database includes images of pathology results and illustrations for notes. Many more images are included in the additional question sets available to registered users.

To avoid pattern recognition questions are presented in random sequence, and the order of question responses are also randomized.

Emergency Medicine Multiple Choice Questions incorporates simple completion, multiple completion type and true/false multiple choice type questions. In addition questions can be entered into the database as grid questions. Grid questions include 5 correct and 5 incorrect responses. From each grid question EM.MCQ can randomly generate 146 different multiple choice questions.

The editing features allow users to add their own questions, edit existing questions, merge with databases made on other computers, add notes, references and perform spell checks. Study groups have a great opportunity to develop and pool questions.

The shareware (trial) version of Emergency Medicine Multiple Choice Questions (EM.MCQ) can be downloaded and trialed for free. Registration is easy and costs only US$30.
