FRCOG vs MRCOG: Key Differences & Preparation Tips

The difference between FRCOG and MRCOG degree
FRCOG and MRCOG are both designations related to the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG), a prestigious organization in women’s healthcare. Here’s the key difference:

MRCOG (Member of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists): This is a qualification awarded to doctors who have successfully passed all parts of the RCOG membership examination. It signifies a strong foundation in obstetrics and gynecology.
FRCOG (Fellow of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists): This is a distinction, not a qualification. It’s awarded to individuals who have made significant contributions to the field of obstetrics and gynecology, through research, teaching, or clinical practice. While most FRCOGs are also MRCOGs, fellowships can also be awarded to non-members who have made exceptional contributions.
