The PACES examination is being updated to a new “PACES 2020” examination. Given the ongoing COVID-19 situation, the MRCP(UK) have announced that the new examination now won’t be introduced until 2022.
We take this to mean that, if you’re taking PACES in 2021, you’ll still be doing the ‘old’ version of the exam. If you’re planning to take a PACES course, make sure the course will be preparing you for the right version of the exam.
