Candidates Sought For Evaluation On ABPN Oral Exam
APA is seeking candidates to participate in a pilot program that will help
them evaluate their performance on an oral examination similar to Part 2 of
the ABPN boards. Only candidates who have failed the oral examination (Part 2
of the ABPN examination) two or more times are eligible to participate.
This is the second year that APA has conducted the program.
Current and past board examiners will evaluate participants on their
performance on a live patient interview and clinical vignettes and then
provide feedback on factors that interfere with their performance.
The program will held on Saturday, October 29, at SUNY Downstate Medical
Center, located at 450 Clarkson Avenue, Brooklyn, N.Y.
Tuition for the diagnostic assessment is $800. The deadline for
applications is September 1.
The pilot program can accommodate only 24 candidates. Participants will be
chosen by lottery from the applications received by the deadline. Remediation
is the responsibility of participants.
Those interested in applying should contact Nancy Delanoche by
e-mail at
ndelanoche{at}psych.org
or by phone at (703) 907-8663. The application can be downloaded from
