About the Exam

The questions and figures on these exams and image identifications have been provided by the faculties of the course, as well as, other interested clinicians. These individuals have no knowledge of the actual questions on the ABIM exam.

According to the ABIM website ( ABIM.org) the distribution of the questions is as follows: esophagus 10%, stomach 15%, liver 25%, biliary tract 8%, pancreas 10%, colon 15% and general 7%. The ABIM certification exam is a four 60 question-bloc exam (8 hours) and the re-certification exam is a three 60 question-bloc exam (6 hours). The 60 question and 30 question exams on this website have been created using this organ distribution of questions.

To simulate the ABIM exam, each 60 question exam should be taken in a 2 hour time period and each 30 question exam in 1 hour. In addition there are image identification slide sections to improve your skills.

As time goes on we may be adding future exam questions or image identification questions so please keep checking back periodically.
