Structured Cases

Half of the ABOG oral boards and ALL of the AOBOG clinical boards are defending structured cases. These patient management scenarios require you to proceed down the algorithm management pathway. All candidates on the same day of your test receive the same cases in order to standardize an otherwise subjective test. ABC has nicknamed this process "Case of the Day."

In order to simulate your test, ABC provides a mock oral on structured cases during the course. Like your test, each day will have a different theme, and a minimum of one core topic. The ABC faculty examiners are either generalists or the corresponding sub-specialist. You can sign up for just one session to cover your weakest area or attend daily sessions to cover all topics. For more details, please contact us toll free at 1-877-ABC-OBGYN (222-6249).

Pricing and ordering information is HERE.

ABC reserves the right to cancel within 3 weeks of the date of the workshop if there is not a minimum of 10 registrants.

"Unfortunately I'm repeating my exam. The simulation on the computer and the type of cases gave me goose bumps as this was just exactly like my test; however, now I'm better armed" -- Sep 09

"Those round robin case of the days are worth their weight in gold. Get this, Dr Martin had given me the Obstetrics one, and I essentially memorized the answer sheet. It was surreal as my preeclampsia question on my clinical boards was essentially the same as the round robin. The examiner himself complimented me and said 'Doctor, you managed that patient beautifully.' I am so happy I passed; I'll be back for my recertification exam for sure." DC Sep 2008

"Great practice, I mean PERFECT practice" Oct 08

"Scary, but better to know that now, than on the test" Sep 08

"Actually fun" Oct 08

"I unfortunately failed my oral exam last year; your Round Robin exercise was EXACTLY the format of my test. Although I wish I had you last year, NOW I'm ready - these are perfect practice for the real thing"
