This recommended reading list is provided for guidance only and is not exhaustive; if appropriate the latest edition of any book should be looked at rather than that suggested here.
Approximately 80% of examination questions will be taken from books and journals listed; your journal scan should be restricted to the last five years (papers published online may be used). Other books or journals may contain good papers or articles on veterinary pathology and you should maintain a broad scan of relevant publications.
Candidates are reminded that textbook knowledge represents a substantial component of the examination
