Introduction: Part 3 The 1992 examination was attempted by 1065 candidates, a decrease of 45 on last year’s figure. The overall pass-rate of 38.2 % was down 1.1% compared with last year, and it remains disappointing to see the pass-rate below the 40 Yo mark. The total number of UK candidates was 674, of whom 292 passed, a passrate of 43.3%, slightly down compared to last year. The total number of overseas candidates was 399, an increase of 41, of whom 117 passed, a pass-rate of 29.3 %, a slight increase compared to last year.
