Well this is just what this exam was previously known as. Weird I should think, an exam to be named after an act in the constitution of Sri Lanka. So finally, someone wanted to funk things up and the SLMC came up with this name in late 2005 if my mind doesn’t slip.

With this name change, also came the change of format for these exams. The format of which the exam is conducted can be found on the website of the SLMC, so I see no point it to include here.

I have found amongst my collection of notes, an old copy of the syllabus for the act 16 exams. Generally speaking medical students don’t have a syllabus, as every medical condition affecting the human body is to be studied. However, as a guide in completing the learning task, or to see where you are in your quest for medical knowledge this should be helpful.

I will post this as soon as I can get it scanned.

Any input from fellow colleagues is welcome.
