A new final year examination in surgery has been devised. It consists of a clinical assessment made by a surgical tutor over a period of six weeks throughout a student's surgical term, a visual, clinically orientated written examination a "spotter-type" practical examination and a viva-voce examination. Correlation with students' previous performances has been good and the examination appears to have solved many of the problems which necessitated its development.
