1261-1270 MCQ in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

Starting with question No. 1251 each exam item will have 4 possible answers and one of them will be correct. This change has
occurred for two reasons:

1) Otolaryngology and Facial Plastic qualifying examinations have changed to this format.
2) This format will facilitate the creation of new items without sacrificing learning power.
