Registrars who failed fellowship exam wrongly sent follow-up email ‘confirming their pass’

The emergency medicine college says it emailed a correction within minutes.

A college has apologised to registrars who failed a fellowship exam after mistakenly sending a follow-up email ‘confirming their pass’.

Registrars who already had formal confirmation they had failed an emergency medicine fellowship exam in February were emailed this week saying they had actually passed.
