  	From the nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century, many medics gained the qualifications 'LSA, MRCS' or 'LRCP, MRCS'. During this period, the MRCS (Member of the Royal College of Surgeons) exam was taken by most medical practitioners at the outset of their career along with the LSA (Licentiate of the Society of Apothecaries) or later the LRCP (Licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians). Many of these did not go on to practise surgery at all, but entered other fields of medicine. In 1843 the College nominated 600 Fellows, and from 1844 examined candidates for the FRCS (Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons). It was this higher qualification which became an essential prerequisite to entering surgical training and going on to practise as a surgeon.
