Really? What went wrong? I thought it was fair and the calculations were straightforward on the whole. Didn't expect so many questions on the GPhC / NHS values / pre-registration training!

Can anyone suggest any important reports/documents to read up on in preparation for interviews? Planning on going over the Francis report but if there are any other crucial ones I would appreciate someone letting me know!


The Carter review, Berwick report and the kneogh report they all go hand in hand with the Francis one
