Dermatology Examination Schedule
All ABPS written examinations are offered in a computer-based, multiple choice format in test centers across the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada.
The computer-based format allows the candidate great flexibility in examination scheduling, and in most cases, eliminates the need for long distance travel.
The computer-based examination window usually spans four weeks, and the candidate can schedule on any day during the four weeks that his/her chosen test center is open, and at any time during the day, so long as he/she allows enough time to complete the exam. Most test centers are open Monday through Friday only. ABPS strongly suggests that you do not schedule your examination on a weekend, or a holiday.
Once a candidate is approved to sit for the examination, and the examination fee is paid, ABPS will send the candidate a password and directions to registering for the examination on the date and at the test center of his/her choice.
PLEASE NOTE:
Submission of an incomplete application may delay the board’s acceptance of your application in time for you to take the examination on the date desired.
At the end of the application there is a checklist detailing the items required for attachment in order for your application to be considered complete. Please review the materials you are submitting against this checklist.
If after a period of one year from your submission of your application, all of the application materials are not deemed complete and the application has not been approved by the appropriate board of certification, your application will become invalid thereby requiring you to submit a new application and fee in order to pursue certification. You must meet the certification requirements, in effect, at the time the second or subsequent application is received by ABPS.
