Ah, okay then.
I thought the written was ridiculous, myself. I was asked questions about the long-term significance of lupus biomarkers (no joke) and various other things not at all related to EM.
They're just getting ahead of the curve. Lupus is going to be next year's Fibro, and if all you know about lupus is that it happens in young black women, then they'll exploit that and take your Dilaudid all the way to the bank, man. Gotta make sure you're on this stuff.

Maybe, but I never order, and never see a biomarker. Little use in testing me on some journal article about its long-term significance.
I took it yesterday too. It sucked. Crossing my fingers I'll pass. Allegedly we can see our scores online before we get them on ABEM's site under the MOC area. I haven't found how to log into this special area. I've tried three different computers including a MAC and a PC still no dice. I also called up ABEM to ask them and allegedly it the next few weeks we will have the option to log into the MOC area and view our exam scores. I truly hope we can. The wait is going to be killer. I scored good on the inservice but this test was a different beast.

Don't talk about test content. Period! full stop! Seriously! They WILL sub poena SDN, get your info, and punch your ticket!
Hmm. So nobody knows how to get onto MOC and see examination results? I know it exists but having a hard time finding it. Saw it on other threads.I took it yesterday too. It sucked.

Yep. This.
Definitely made me wish I had done a specialty that the exam tested on--wow!

Agree with the above. Lots of random factoids about stuff that mostly doesn't matter in the ED.
Bleh. Hope I don't have to do it again!

I remember the ABEM folks telling me it would be "within 90 days". What most people heard was "90 days from now, the scores will be released. They were on the website about a month after.
so u really think dec 11 or so the scores will be posted...I remember the ABEM folks telling me it would be "within 90 days". What most people heard was "90 days from now, the scores will be released. They were on the website about a month after.

If you took it a month or so prior, then yeah.

After you log into the ABEM website, it will likely be available under Examination Score History.

I got an email saying that ABEM's website is down for the time being. Here's the email I received:
A significant ice storm on Sunday, December 22 caused power and communication outages with the ABEM headquarters. These disruptions are continuing while the utility companies actively work on restoring dependable service. Please be advised that intermittent disruptions are possible during the next several days. We apologize for any inconvenience you may have encountered in trying to reach our office or website services.
ABEM headquarters is in central Michigan, where the winters are especially nasty.
Man, i'm glad i moved from 'around there' to Florida.
