  • Revision points: Each chapter concludes with a concise list of key revision points
  • Multiple choice questions: Each section of the book provides multiple choice questions following the SQE1 question format (with answers to enable you to test your knowledge). Further multiple-choice questions and answers are also provided on the companion website
