board exam application question

I feel a bit silly asking this question, but considering the cost, I want to be sure I'm doing things right....

I started to apply for the board certification exam on the ABPN website. It appears that the "application" just consists of making sure they have my medical license number, signing a consent form, and paying for the application. Is that really all? I know the program coordinator has to put in our information, so maybe they just have everything else already? Thanks!

Is this your first time to take the test or is this the MOC?

If coming right out of training, there isn't much for you to do. Not sure when you trained- best info I have seen is here

The entire website they run is a mess with info scattered all over it that I needed to recertify. My best luck was from simply calling and directly speaking to someone live to ensure I'd completed everything.
