Obstetrics & Gynecology Board Certification Exams
The ABPS's obstetrics & gynecology board certification exams enable successful candidates to present themselves to the public as qualified medical specialists in obstetrics & gynecology. Completing the obstetrics & gynecology board certification exams indicates mastery of obstetrics & gynecology knowledge and experience, as well as a professional commitment to adhere to the ABPS Medical Code of Ethics.
The obstetrics & gynecology board certification examination process consists of written and oral exams.
The format of the written exam is multiple-choice, single-response questions. The questions are developed by obstetrics & gynecology Diplomates of the Board of Certification in Surgery (BCS) under the direction of the American Board of Physician Specialties (ABPS) and psychometric consultants.
If successful in passing the written portion of the obstetrics & gynecology board certification exams, the candidate will advance to the oral exam at the next testing administration.
The oral exam of the obstetrics & gynecology board certification exams is comprised of three to five case presentations in which the candidate describes their approach to managing a case presented by an examiner. Trained examiners who are board certified in obstetrics & gynecology conduct the oral exam.
