“…I believe it is a ‘great course’”  *  “I feel [the course] helped me pass.”  *

The Osler Institute has nearly thirty years of experience in preparing physicians for their board examinations. We can help you today.
A survey of Osler participants shows significantly higher pass rates for Osler students compared with those who did not take our course.
The difference in pass rates is difficult to explain away by self-selection in attendance over-representing those who would have passed without taking the Osler course.

Exam pass % for: Written Oral
Osler Participants 91% 96%
Candidates without an Osler review 68% 72%

“Osler gives … unfair advantage” said a Board Trustee. “He’s wrong and right,” reported an Osler participant who heard the trustee’s comment. “The course does give candidates an advantage – but it’s not unfair.” This student had failed his boards before taking the Osler course but told us that he passed easily after doing the course. “This time didn’t even feel like an exam. It was like having a discussion with a colleague.”

The Osler course can work for you too.

This course is designed to help you pass your Neurology board exams. This course is primarily for your written exam but is also helpful for your oral boards. In addition to providing review of clinical neurology, there will be a review of neuroanatomy, neuroimaging, neuropathology, neurogenetics, neuro-ophthalmology, neurophysiology and other written exam subjects such as neurochemistry and pharmacology. Emphasis is on board-relevant standards of care, incorporating new concepts and treatments. Many of our previous students have found the course helped them to recognize specific weaknesses and to organize further self-study.

 The Optional One Day Didactic Course allows up to an additional 10 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits(tm) .
This course is /strongly recommended/ for subspecialists who are weak or amnestic in neurology areas outside of their microspeciality.
The optional one-day seminar is an intense didactic review of adult and child clinical neurology immediately before our well-known three-day course.The lectures provide information to bring everyone up to the same basic level of necessary information in diverse areas of adult and pediatric neurology. 

The three-day Mock Oral courses are based on case vignettes in the form of mock oral examinations emphasizing anatomic localization, differential diagnosis, treatment options, and complications. In 28 hours of cases you will review all major aspects of child and adult clinical neurology. Emphasis will include classical as well as the most up-to-date methods of management. The answers to all questions will be carefully explained. Each participant will get practice and gain skill in organizing and responding to questions under pressure and will have the opportunity to observe other exams. Registration in the 3-day course includes doing two public mock oral exams: one child and one adult unless you request, a week before the course, to do two child or two adult exams. You may a lso purchase extra public or private, child or adult, mock orals. This review format has been so successful, that about half of the board candidates have been taking this course in recent years. Many participants say that taking the course could be the most enjoyable and ideal way to review and assess their current knowledge, even if they have already passed their boards. You may purchase additional public or private adult or child exams to do; however, availability will be limited within two weeks of the course.
