All right, everybody listening. This is Zach Olson this week. This is important. I need you to listen to this.

Coming up and into the future, EM clerkship is going to be putting out some new content

where I'm going to be playing a game and running emergency medicine practice cases with Mike Estefan.

It's designed to be similar in style to your

oral boards once you complete residency. As a student, and even more in residency, you're going to be

exposed to this. You'll have SIM cases like this. Attendings will be helping you prepare for the

oral boards as you get closer to them by doing made up ABM style cases with you with a timer.

You can buy books on this that have ABM style cases in them.

There are courses on this.

This is information that is online.

There are even sample cases on the ABM website.

So this is out there at almost every program.

But I want to be very, very clear

here on this podcast. We need to get down to business. When you start the process to get ABM board

certified in emergency medicine, which I am now, you agree to basically this pact of secrecy. It's called

the ABEM policy on examination irregularities.

It is a very strict policy and is designed to protect the integrity, not just of the exam

material and content, which they own. It's theirs. That's their right. But it's designed to

protect the integrity of what it means to be board certified in emergency

medicine at all.

And so I want to just read out at least a big portion of this policy for you, the parts that

are going to apply to us.
