one of the books you will need

Customer Rating:

read this book for HOW to answer the questions then read yao and artusio's book for what questions are on the exam (talking oral boards here). make sure you do some practice oral exams. the testers are fair but they play by their own rules and if you do not know the rules you have no chance of passing. look at it this way - could you win at poker if you did not know the rules of poker? the exam is not a real test of your real world decision making because that would be impractical - it would then have to be like an ACLS mega-code. instead the examiners are going to put you through a test to see how you think. HOW YOU THINK. not what you think, *HOW*. learning how to think is actually not difficult. and once you have it down, the oral exam is easy. good luck and if it is any consolation i really do empathize.

An Excellent Start !

I WAY over-studied for the Orals (passed Sept 2005). This book was almost the exact format I had in my 2 exams. Don't be fooled by the simplistic approach they offer, it really was how the test went. "Would you give blood to this patient ?" "Yes, I would" "Why", etc. NOT- Whats the MAC of enflurane in this Patient, and other minutia that some of the board review courses push. I also STUDIED "Clinical Cases In Anesthesiology" by Reed-Fantastic!-not as over-detailed as Yao, though I read it (Yao) in residency. A helpful tip might be to make flash-cards of scenarios, ex: Hypoxia, Hypotension, Things that can go wrong when transporting a patient from the ICU, etc. It definitely helped with the test and, frankly having committed them to cold memory for this test has made me a better doctor. Everyone can discuss the DDx for hypotension, but being able to effectively run through the list in a SICK patient is a different matter altogether. Done preaching, Good Luck!
