SJTs are currently used elsewhere in medicine for the selection of fully qualified doctors into GP training, however this type of examination and questioning is not one which any medical student will be familiar with or have come across in their training to date. The book gives a comprehensive explanation of answers including key references and topics relating to professionalism, medical ethics, GMC guidelines and foundation programme personal specifications. The contributing authors include current foundation year doctors who can offer authentic realism from their ward experience. The book will serve not only as a revision guide but also as an instructional tool to help potential junior doctors reason through professional dilemmas they may encounter in the 'SJT' selection tests as well as in real life on the wards.

This book includes over 100 professional dilemma scenarios in both the Ranking and Multiple Actions formats. It covers a wide range of situations which junior doctors would encounter during the course of their medical practice and constitues an ideal revision tool for any aspiring GP.
