Frequently Asked Questions for LFFLM (GFM) and (SOM) Candidates
In October 2023, we announced changes to the format of the Licentiate (LFFLM) examinations in SOM and GFM.
Candidates will no longer submit a Compendium of Validated Evidence, (COVE), or a case portfolio; instead, they will sit a short answer question (SAQ) paper in the Part 2 examination. The Part 1 LFFLM will remain as a single best answer (SBA) paper. The Part 2 LFFLM will still have the OSCEs, along with the SAQ.
Understandably, candidates have had queries about how these changes will impact them so we’ve created this Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) document.
