The exam contains approximately 205 single-best-answer, standard multiple choice questions. Each question is in paragraph form with an answer set containing one correct answer and three or four incorrect answers.
The ABEM concert exam 2018 is divided into two sections or books, each is separately timed; the first lasts 2 hours and 5 minutes, and the second 2 hours and 10 minutes, with a 20-minute break between each section. The entire exam appointment takes approximately 5.25 hours to complete.
Each book of the examination consists of both pictorial and non-pictorial multiple choice questions. Pictorial questions refer to stimulus images such as photos of X-rays, ECGs, rhythm strips, pictures, etc. These images will be presented in a separate tab along with the relevant test question on the computer screen. You will not need to interpret ultrasound images for pictorial questions on the ABEM Recertification Exam. CT scans may be used as stimuli but for views of the head only.
ABEM selects questions for the exam based on how closely they align with the EM Model, as seen in the EM blueprint . While questions can originate from any content area within the model, some areas are routinely selected.
