BUILT FOR REAL MRCGP AKT DECISIONS

The MRCGP AKT may test whether you can select safe contraception, recognise a safeguarding concern, manage a common childhood presentation, assess mental-health risk, identify an urgent ophthalmological condition or choose the correct referral pathway.

Volume 2 helps organise these decisions around the safest and most appropriate UK general-practice response. It focuses on recognising patterns, applying clinical criteria and selecting investigations, treatment, monitoring, referral or escalation rather than memorising isolated facts.

STRONG FOCUS ON WOMEN’S HEALTH

Revise important contraception rules, missed-pill decisions, contraindications, drug interactions, pregnancy considerations, menstrual presentations, gynaecological red flags and breast symptoms through structured, exam-focused explanations.

CHILD HEALTH AND SAFEGUARDING

Strengthen your understanding of common paediatric presentations, growth and development, prescribing safety, vaccination considerations, safeguarding concerns and the red flags requiring urgent assessment or referral.

MENTAL HEALTH AND PROFESSIONAL SAFETY

Review depression, anxiety, severe mental illness, substance-related presentations, capacity, consent, self-harm and suicide risk, urgent escalation and safe follow-up within UK primary care.

COMMON GP CLINICS

Consolidate frequently encountered musculoskeletal, dermatological, ENT, ophthalmological and neurological presentations, including important distinctions, treatment choices and referral thresholds that may appear in MRCGP AKT questions.
