Course Description

Spend the day with Board-Certified Academy Fellows to strengthen your case submissions and defenses. 

Join us for an intensive, hands-on session designed to enhance your case preparation, presentation skills, and defense strategies for the Part II exam. Gain insights into the exam's expectations through:

• Faculty-led Case Preparation Instruction
• Tips for Handling Complex or Complicated Cases
• Examples of Effective Case Presentations
• Interactive Q&A Discussions

There are two types of registration options for the Virtual Course!

• Presenter Status: You will receive a 30-minute timeslot dedicated to you. During this time you can mock-present your cases to faculty that will provide you with direct feedback. Outside of your 30-minute timeslot you have the opportunity to observe other presenters as they receive feedback and ask questions as well.
• Observer Status: Not ready to take the Part II exam yet? You can observe all the presenters that mock-present through out the course. During Q&A sessions you can ask any questions you may have.

During this session, you'll have the opportunity to work closely with fellowship-trained faculty to: 

• Present Challenging Cases: Present two challenging cases in a mock oral exam setting, where you'll experience different questioning techniques, receive candid feedback, identify common pitfalls, and develop strategies to strengthen your defense. 
• Review Case Documentation: Receive detailed feedback on your case notes, documents and images, ensuring your documentation meets exam standards and expectations.
• Identify Areas for Improvement: Leverage faculty feedback and insights to fine-tune your case presentation approach and enhance your overall exam strategy.

*Each participant is guaranteed time to present or review two cases, but please have three cases prepared in case additional time allows for extra reviews.
