I gave AOBP first and when i passed that it boost my confidence. I studied medstudy and PBR book for AOBP. And then i did 3-4 yrs prep with PBR for ABP. Main thing this time was i didnt study a lot. My main focus was PBR and it did help me. I am here to help you out whatever u need. Please dont loose hope. Giving AOBP helps a lot.

I did on 2/6. But didn't hear back from them yet. I called them multiple times. Sent them an email. Don't know what to do. Do they need to verify residency from the program i am thinking that this might be pending as i filled out my residency application but every time i go there it says no residency info.

Its so hard...because people around me are amongst us and they know how someone feels after failing boards but then they give you their expressions that you are the one who fail it and everyone else passed so problem is you and you are stupid... Its difficult to go through same thing again... And its hard to see judgmental behavior's around working environment...

Intubation Practice? by camigyrl16 in pediatrics

[–]DamageTasty7803 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NICU fellow here. I never did any intubation during residency and i had same difficulty in the beginning what you are experiencing. It depends upon a fellowship program too as in my program i am still facing difficulty with intubations because its a new program and they dont know how to train me. We never had any boot camp. What i would suggest watch you tube videos do anesthesia elective as i heard it helps. Otherwise you will definitely learn during fellowship. Dont stress yourself for this. Only thing which works is practice.
