Does anyone have any advice for the osteopathic FP boards?

Shinken,
how much time would you recommend for studying for the March 31st exam?
would you suggest using the Brattons FP book as a good source of questions?

Can anyone give a rundown on how the omm practical part is?
Thats good to know, Im just worried because my program doesnt emphasize OMM as much so my knowledge is fading and Im worried that like in med school the proctors will be very nitpicky...are my fears valid?I took it 4 years ago. We all sat at a table initially and were given 3 cases on paper. You had to do a chart note, you put down at least 3 differential diagnosis for the case and you better include somatic dysfunction as one of them.
The practical was super easy, they give you a diagnosis and you give two different ways of treating it. You go through the motions of HVLA and don't actually do the thrust.

Any last minute tips for the DO Boards?
Practical is super easy especially if you take the review course.It's been too long since I took the FP boards, and I don't have to recertify yet, so I'll defer to those that have taken the exams recently. I'm curious to see if anything has changed, particularly with the OMT practical.
