2012 Spring Oral Board Review Course
"I took the 2 day course in Philly in October, 4-5 days before my boards. The course was a perfect simulation of the actual exam. The course gave me the confidence I needed to pass the exam. Thank you PaACEP. I will recommend this course to anyone preparing for his or her oral boards." - Fall 2010 Attendee

The best way to pass the Emergency Medicine Oral Boards is to practice the Emergency Medicine Oral Boards!
Who Should Enroll?
All physicians who have passed part one of the ABEM or AOBEM board exams and are preparing to take part two, the oral exam.
What to Expect:
Each day of the course begins with an in-depth orientation and video simulation from 7:30 am-9:00 am. In this session we'll explain what to expect from the Oral Certification Examination as well as from the PaACEP course. Following the orientation will be your one-on-one patient simulated encounters from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.
Our course is a simulation of the Boards - only you and the faculty member will be in the testing room during the case presentation. Individual schedules will vary; therefore PaACEP provides continuous visual stimuli throughout the day to augment the course. Faculty and course directors are available throughout the day to answer any questions that you have.
You will feel more confident about taking the EM Boards after our course!
