Help MCEE

[amygdala]

HI Guys,

Have decided to take the leap and attempt to come to Canada. Any pearls of wisdom on how to go about studying for the MCEE. All suggestions and advise more than welcome. Am at a loss at the moment not knowing how and where to approach things

Your first place to start is the Medical Council of Canada / Le Conseil médical du Canada website; the website of the organisation the administers the exam. In its pages, you will discover a description of the exam (and the similarities/differences from the USMLE), and a 436 page study guide that is a free download. There is a LOT of information on this website, and some of it can be hard to find, so search around!

The study guide is here:
http://www.mcc.ca/pdf/Complete_Objectives-e.pdf
(This is a large file, so will take a while to download.)

There is also a large amount of cultural info on this site that will be tested on the exam.
MCC Objectives: C2LEO

And while the MCC doesn't endorse it, most Canadian med students use
the Toronto Notes, a study guide produced by med students at UofT for the MCCQE.
Toronto Notes 2007 Official Website

And study guides for the USMLE step 2 CK, while having a slightly different focus than ones for the MCCQE, might be helpful as well.
