Oral Exam ScriptsWhen you think of your oral exam, can you identify with how David must have felt when he first saw Goliath? No worries; we've got your slingshot. This manual compiles the recollections of others experience with the ABOG oral exam. Like your exam, the manual is divided into the three sections of OB, GYN, and Office. Each section is further organized by topic with introductory scripts for corresponding case list and structured cases. Not only will you have a great feel for the conduct of the exam, you will also have an indispensable study guide, as you will surely have some of the same topics on your case list and exam.
"I studied with a couple of friends who had products from other companies, so we pooled our resources. Not surprisingly, there was overlap of the recollections; however, the organization of your Scripts manual was TOP NOTCH. Quickly this became our 'go to' source since hands down was the easiest to navigate and the most thorough." -- AF November 2011 "The Scripts book was great, it was very helpful to know what to expect and prepare for. I even had some of the exact same questions on my exam!" -- VD December 2010 "I PASSED!!!!! Yippee and a million thanks. I wanted to share with the future student how I studied b/c I really think it helped: I made a huge list of topics from the syllabus and my case list about 6wks before the exam and did a topic review. Then I strictly used your oral exam scripts to review everything. I really think this got me ready for the hard questions and let me review what I had already read. There were NO surprises on my test." -- LM January 2011 "I have similar products from another company, but yours is superior because of the detail and especially the organization" -- NG December 2010 "Very user friendly" -- ER November 2010 $125.00 standard ground delivery included.

Appendices:
"I am an MFM fellow in my first year and will take the general boards this year. I bought and am reading your book on how to take and pass the oral ob/gyn board exam. I hope it is OK to email you with a question. I would greatly appreciate your advice! Your book is becoming indispensable in my preparation." -- ND May 2010 "I just bought 8 of your books to give to my graduating chief residents. I can't think of a better way to make a difference for their future." -- ND May 2010 "I was advised don't even attempt the case list without your book. I bought your book the first week of July and I am devouring it with the anticipation of preparing correctly for my orals." -- EB August 2010 "Our residency purchased your book for all the chief residents as a going away present. We refer to it as 'the Bible' for the oral exams." "Your book has been the 'light in darkness' for this journey." -- AR, July 2010 My preparation for the 2009 exam was plainly deficient. For days after the test, I just shook my head when I thought about it. In June this year (2010), as I scrambled to complete another case list, I ordered your book and reading it was like finding religion. I clearly hadn't grasped the magnitude of this test, and I certainly hadn't undertaken any strategy in my approach. For instance, it never occurred to me that I didn't HAVE to tolerate the restrictions and idiosyncracies of the ABOG software. When I read your advice to create my own case list spreadsheet, I about fell off my chair with the genius of it! Every piece of advice just seemed so profound that I decided to start over with a new approach to this beast." -- JL Oct 2010 $45.00 standard ground delivery included.

"Your audio lectures were a great tool and was the 'music' I listened to on my way to/from the hospital. I have to share a funny story about them: they have a dangerous side too. One early morning I was driving home after a long night at the hospital and of course I was listening to one of your lectures, the one about the ureteral and bladder injuries. You said we have to know and memorize the course of the ureter and I found myself listening to your commands: 'I want you to close your eyes and imagine the ureter traveling...', and I was driving, and I closed my eyes; fortunately the gravel on the side of the road startled me out of my trance. That was a close call, but guess what they asked me on my exam? Yep, the course of the ureter...that one I couldn't suppress a laugh as I answered." -- VD December 2010 "The course topics were spot on with my exam topics." -- CC November 2010 Click HERE to view sample videos from our lectures.Prices start at $100.
