• ›Minimum 5 years postgraduate surgical training within a European context
• ›At least 2 years dedicated transplant surgery in a recognized ESOT-accredited center
• ›Operative logbook demonstrating solid organ transplantation (kidney, liver, pancreas, or cardiothoracic)
• ›Familiarity with immunosuppression protocols and post-transplant management
• ›Membership of ESOT or national transplant surgical society

• ›Focus your first weeks on the highest-weight syllabus areas — they account for over half the marks and offer the fastest return on study time.
• ›Use active recall with timed question sessions rather than passive re-reading. The FEBS-TS written component rewards speed and precision under pressure.
• ›Cross-reference every question explanation with the cited guideline section. Over a 3–6 month preparation cycle, this builds the mental index examiners expect in the oral component.
