MRCPsych on the Go: Revision Essentials
Hello! My name is Dr Aalap Asurlekar, and I am a psychiatry trainee in the UK. I created MRCPsych on the Go to make revision for the MRCPsych exams easier to fit around busy clinical work.
This podcast is designed for psychiatry trainees preparing for Paper A, B, CASC but also, medical students. Each episode focuses on key syllabus topics and explains them in clear, structured language to help you understand and retain the most important concepts.
Topics range from psychopathology, psychopharmacology, neuroscience, sociology, behavioral science, psychological therapies to clinical assessment. Episodes include exam style questions and clinical scenarios to support active recall and exam preparation.
The aim is to provide focused, high yield psychiatry revision you can listen to during commutes, walks or between shifts.

MRCPsych on the Go: Revision Essentials
16. Carl Jung Explained: Archetypes, the Unconscious and Individuation
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if the stories, myths and symbols that appear across all human cultures are not a coincidence? Carl Jung thought they revealed something profound about the structure of the human mind.
In this episode, we explore Jung's theory of personality, including his psychological types, the personal and collective unconscious, and the archetypes he believed we all share: the shadow, the persona, the anima and the animus. We also cover synchronicity and the process of individuation, Jung's idea of becoming a whole and integrated self.
Ideal for MRCPsych Part A revision, psychology students and anyone fascinated by the deeper layers of the human mind. Aligned with the Royal College of Psychiatrists MRCPsych Part A syllabus, paragraph 1.1.6.
