Description:
Pass your Otolaryngology certification exam by honing your critical reasoning and evaluation skills in an intensive 2-day case review course designed to help you zero in on what is most clinically relevant for diagnosis, developing a management plan, and surgical approach, if required, in all pertinent areas of otolaryngology. This course is given in the exam city, immediately preceding the oral exams. The course begins with a lecture on critical reasoning skills that will be emphasized during the mock oral exams to follow. The remainder of the course consists of a series of board-relevant cases presented as half-hour public mock oral exams followed by faculty feedback. Participants and faculty review one-on-one in a 25-minute simulation of the oral board exam. You may request intermittent critiques or a straight exam followed by a critique.

Course fees include participating in two public mock oral exams and observing others being examined. Participants may purchase additional mock orals if desired (public or private); however, availability may be limited within two weeks of the start of the course.
