RACGP fellowship fiasco: ‘We are sorry. We can and will do better’

Associate Professor Ayman Shenouda

The RACGP fellowship exams had to be cancelled on Friday and Saturday due to widespread technical failures leaving candidates distraught. Here the college offers its apology and pledges full refunds and ongoing support.

On behalf of the entire RACGP, we are sorry.

We deeply regret having to cancel both the Key Feature Problem (KFP) exam and Applied Knowledge Test (AKT), and apologise unreservedly for the significant distress and disruption this has caused candidates — many of whom had already experienced a delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Full refunds for all candidates will be processed from 12 October and we are working to quickly reschedule the exams, which will go ahead this year.
