“Everything needed to pass the Applied Exam is in your course.”
“I passed my oral board exam, and I’m now officially board certified! Thank you so much for honoring the ‘First-Time Pass Guarantee.’ Everything needed to pass the Applied Exam is in your course. Retrospectively, I realized two things when I didn’t pass the SOE portion of the exam in the past:
- I didn’t spend enough time studying for the exam.
- The biggest change in my studying was speaking out loud during each study session. This time, I rarely wrote anything down. Instead, I practiced speaking out loud and revised my verbal answers as needed. Every week, I did a practice exam utilizing the UBP private examiners.
I noticed significant improvement halfway through my studying–thanks to the weekly practice exams utilizing the 4-critical components and the redundant patient comorbidities in each mock exam. I would also like to recognize Dr. Carolyn Thai: she incorporated 3 grab bag questions during the practice exams. Her feedback was
exceptional; she communicates effectively, and she is approachable. Once again, thank you for your time and help.

“…UBP was THE key to helping me pass oral boards.”
Jill, I felt that UBP was THE key to helping me pass oral boards. I stayed on as faculty at my fellowship where anesthesia residents are consistently preparing for boards, and I will from here on out be exclusively recommending your program for preparation. You guys are awesome! Thanks.

“Without the structure and rigorous content of UBP it would’ve been extremely difficult for me to pass the Applied exam on the first try.”
Dear Jill, I am pleased to share that I passed both the SOE and OSCE. Without the structure and rigorous content of UBP it would’ve been extremely difficult for me to pass the Applied exam on the first try. The 3 mock oral boards I did the week before my actual exam were quite helpful as examiners can have different perspectives or feedback to share with you. I have recommended UBP to many of my resident colleagues. Thank you for what you do!

Good Morning UBP team, Just found out earlier this week that I passed my oral boards and I wanted to thank you for providing such a comprehensive review and board prep program. It can be overwhelming with the amount of information, but the stems, videos, explanations and practice sessions made everything so manageable and ultimately made me a better anesthesiologist. Thank you again!

“UBP helped me be prepared for this experience better than I could have imagined.”
Hello UBP team. I wanted to reach out and thank you, Dr. George, and the whole team. I recently took and PASSED my applied exam! UBP helped me be prepared for this experience better than I could have imagined. The actual stems were much less complicated than your practice stems, which was a welcome relief. Additionally, my examiners had a wide spectrum of skill in examining and I’m grateful for all of the practice to help overcome this obstacle confidently. I left Raleigh relieved and grateful for all the practice I underwent with you and your mock examiners.

“When they say to do one thing and do it well, all you need is Ultimate Board Prep.”
Hi Dr. George, Thank you so much for creating UBP as truly the ULTIMATE resource for preparation for the oral boards! I passed the boards and I am absolutely thrilled!!! I only used the Ultimate Board Prep. I listened to the audios while driving, and while setting up my OR. I went through all of the mock exams and the grab bags, and honestly even in my personal life I have started using “I would…because…however…therefore”. When they say to do one thing and do it well, all you need is Ultimate Board Prep. I cannot thank you enough for creating this masterpiece!

“I believe I am a better physician after taking your course.”
Dr. George and Staff, I could not thank you more for such a wonderful program you have put together. I’m a mother of three, changed careers after 10 years from Ob/Gyn to Anesthesiology. I didn’t think I could get over this last hurdle. I wanted you to know, I passed the oral boards! I tried another program last year. I’m unsure if it was getting over Covid or a program I couldn’t follow, but I was unsuccessful last year. The first time I ever failed an exam. So disheartening. This year I used your program. I met a wonderful female doctor through your program and we kept each other honest on our studying goals. You helped us accomplish our goals! She too passed. May God bless you and all your staff. Keep doing the great job you are doing. I believe I am a better physician after taking your course.

“your OSCE tools were key; the monitor view, the patient encounter information, etc., were spot on.”
Dear Dr. George and colleagues, I just wanted to share that I successfully passed the SOE and OSCE after taking your course. My residency program was extremely light on oral board prep, so pretty much anything I know I learned from your team. I also wanted to point out that your OSCE tools were key; the monitor view, the patient encounter information, etc., were spot on. I am very grateful for the service and especially for your examiners. They were tougher than the real thing was, which was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you again, and I’ll be spreading the word about UBP to everyone I know.

Dear Dr. George and colleagues, I am writing to share good news – I passed my applied board exam! I would like to express a heartfelt thanks and appreciation for the high-quality applied board prep material you all have painstakingly created and updated along the way. I could not have done it without UBP. The coaching video, small group session, and mock exams were the most helpful.

I’m so appreciative of her compassion and empathy during a few stressful moments in preparing for this exam. Many thanks.

Dear UBP Team, Thanks for the in-depth content outlines, practice stems, OSCE material and online exams. I passed on my first attempt. I really liked your structure and style of teaching and found it to be very valuable. Truthfully, I feel that the real test wasn’t as thorough as your prep exams/material. You guys did a better job testing than the actual board exam.

“The strategies you laid out for studying and approaching the boards were spot on.”
Hi Dr. George. I wanted to thank you for offering such a great review product for the oral boards. I bought the full package because I wanted to give myself every possible chance of passing. I thought it was well worth it! I did pass my SOE and OSCE! Overall, the materials were fantastic and a comprehensive consolidated foundation. The strategies you laid out for studying and approaching the boards were spot on. The video review to complement the written material was why I bought your product. I’m a visual learner, and this was a huge help! I thought they were a great way to learn more about the reasoning behind specific answers and how to approach the vast variety of scenarios. I thought they also were great for the ability to observe a back and forth between examiner/examinee and pick apart or fine tune the replies. It’s a true art. I think overall your product is very high yield and provides a consolidated and organized review strategy. With regard to the practice mock orals, these are obviously extremely high yield. I can’t thank your examiners enough. The practice was invaluable. Their feedback was excellent and did help me focus and improve certain areas. Can’t thank you enough for helping so many of us out there struggling through the stress of oral board review. I will gladly recommend your product to many in the future.

I am currently a pediatric anesthesiology fellow at Stanford University. I learned about your resources for preparing for the APPLIED standardized oral examination from an attending during residency at the University of Pennsylvania. I have been delighted with your educational materials throughout the preparation process, from the moment I walked out of the exam building, and especially after receiving passing results for the exam yesterday. Thank you for taking the time to produce such quality board preparation material and provide knowledge, organization, and communication strategies that will make for better anesthesiologist consultants. I will certainly be recommending your program to my colleagues and trainees. Thank you for your time.

I wanted to let you know that you can add another success story backing your prep course, the UBP process, and the hard work creating all the content.Having access to audio/video as well as virtual content made it very easy for me to review material on the go. I think wrestling with this content all the time was a large part of my success, and UBP made it easy to do that. My exam topics were certainly covered, and the prep for the OSCE was spot on. My hospital recently started a residency, and I will certainly be recommending this content down the road.
