Pediatrics Board Review is a concise yet thorough review of pediatrics for pediatricians taking the pediatric board certification exam or recertification exam. This text is an outline-format, fact-filed, user-friendly review filled with exam-taking pearls to adequately prepare the exam-taker. Each year 200 new pediatric residents take the pediatric board exam and currently there is only one pediatric board review text on the market. The American Board of Pediatrics recently changed the requirements for the pediatric recertification process. Now, all board-certified pediatricians (roughly 70,000) need to take a closed- book exam once every 7 years (that means around 10,000 pediatricians a year will take the test). Therefore, they will need a review text.
Pediatrics Board Review (PBR) was created by Dr. Ashish Goyal to help pediatricians pass the American Board of Pediatrics Initial Certification exam, the MOCA-Peds questions, and the MOC recertification exam.
Easy-to-use and comprehensive, clinicians will find this guide to be the ideal final resource needed before taking the pediatric board exam.
This highly practical review tool follows the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) general pediatrics content outline, with topics weighted to correlate with the exam.
Questions are written in a case-based format that emulates the ABP board exam, and are supplemented by figures, tables, and boxes. A Quick Facts section rounds out the text for ease of reference.
