About the ABPN Neurology Specialty Certification
The ABPN (American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology) Neurology Specialty Certification exam is a crucial step for physicians seeking to become board-certified neurologists in the United States. To be eligible for the exam, you must have completed an accredited neurology residency program and hold a valid unrestricted medical license in the U.S. or Canada.
The written portion of this exam is typically offered once a year in September, while the oral portion of the exam is held twice a year, usually in April and October.
Passing the ABPN Neurology Specialty Certification exam demonstrates a physician's expertise in neurology and commitment to providing high-quality patient care, which can be important for career advancement, hospital privileges, and insurance reimbursement.
Once certified, neurologists must maintain their certification through the ABPN's Maintenance of Certification (MOC) program, which involves ongoing learning, self-assessment, and periodic re-examination.
The written exam is a one-day, computer-based test with approximately 400 multiple-choice questions and candidates have 8 hours to complete the exam.
Topics covered:
- Basic neuroscience
- Clinical neurology
- Patient Management
- Psychiatry and behavioral neurology
It's essential to review the ABPN's official website for the most up-to-date information on exam dates, eligibility requirements, and application processes, as these may change over time.
Note: The ABPN does not disclose the exact passing score for the Neurology Specialty Certification exam. The passing score is determined using a criterion-referenced method, which means that candidates are not graded on a curve or compared to other test-takers. Instead, the passing score is set by a committee of subject matter experts who determine the minimum level of knowledge and skill required for certification.
