Candidates Sought For Evaluation On Oral Exam
APA is accepting candidates for a pilot program to provide diagnostic
evaluation of performance on oral examination similar to Part 2 of the boards.
Only candidates who have failed the oral board (Part 2 of the ABPN exam) two
or more times are eligible to participate.
Candidates will be evaluated on their performance on a live patient
interview and clinical vignettes by current and past board examiners.
Candidates will then be given feedback on factors that interfere with their
performance. Remediation will be the responsibility of the participants.
Tuition for this diagnostic assessment is $500.
The pilot program can accommodate only 24 candidates. Participants will be
chosen by lottery from the applications received by the deadline, which is
November 1.
The program will held at SUNY Downstate Medical Center at 450 Clarkson
Avenue in Brooklyn, N.Y., on December 4.
Those interested in applying should contact Nancy Delanoche by

or by phone at (703) 907-8635. More information, including an application
form, can be obtained from APA's Web site at
