Boarding Time

Years of education, training, and experience are required to prepare psychiatrists and psychiatry residents for the culmination of their professional efforts: Board certification. Long a staple in the field, "Boarding Time: The Psychiatry Candidate's New Guide to Part II of the ABPN Examination" provides practical, systematic preparation for one of the most stressful events in a psychiatrist's professional life. This new fourth edition of the classic incorporates the authors' exhaustive review of the literature and extensive interviews with candidates and examiners. It also introduces written and video training vignettes that offer valuable insight into the examination process. The authors intend "Boarding Time" as a help for all candidates-whether they have just begun their preparations, have already reviewed extensively, or have failed the exam and must retake it. For those who have successfully completed the examination, this volume will continue to serve as a concise professional reference. Easy-to-read and filled with actual case examples, "Boarding Time" provides indispensable knowledge and support at a critical juncture in every psychiatrist's career.
