How does everybody study for the boards?

[Tipsy McStagger]

Any positive experiences with either SCCM or Chest courses? I'll do the seek questions but usually like something to help guide me aside from just questions.

Thanks!

I did the Peds SCCM questions at nauseum. I think there were study guides too, but most of it for me was just question repetition. I've personally never been one for courses, but I suppose others may feel differently.

And then, there's the couple days before where you write Fick's equation and alveolar gas exchange over and over till your knuckles bleed.

I did the SCCM board review course on demand, played most of the lectures throughout fellowship, then listened to them all again as I drove across country to start my first job. On top of that, did all of SEEK, the SCCM AKAs, an ATS question book, an old ABA CCM self-assessment module, and a crappier online board review question set. After all of that, the actual exam was almost a breeze, and I had a ridiculous amount of CME that I could claim.
