Oral Board Simulator: Your Secret Weapon to DOMINATING the Exam

In this episode, Drs. Ali, Georgoff, and Swenson share some big-time updates to our oral board simulator. We've also included a full example test for you to listen to. Whether you are studying for the exam, or for your next rotation, try the Behind the Knife Oral Board Simulator for free: https://behindtheknifeoralboardsimulator.org

What's new:
Massive Usage & Feedback: The Beta launch of the AI-powered oral board simulator has been a huge success, thanks to the incredible support and actionable feedback from the surgical community. Your feedback has allowed for advanced fine tuning and a better user experience.

Next-Level Feedback: Your readiness score just got a whole lot more honest! The score is now a more accurate reflection of your performance and the number of the 362 testable conditions and procedures you've actually covered.

The Examiner Makeover: Experience a real-world test day with 20 different examiner voices (fast, slow, accented) to prepare you for any personality you might face.

Introducing your new study partners: Get ready for three game-changing features designed to elevate your training:

Coach: The ultimate study buddy! Ask it questions, and it will provide the right answers, identify your weaknesses, and walk you through scenarios (the opposite of the unhelpful examiner!).

OpGuide: Perfect for procedural review. Ask it how to perform a procedure (like a Whipple), and it will provide concise, board-appropriate surgical steps.

Wingman: Practice unfamiliar topics without the stress! It presents a patient stem, and if you're stuck, Wingman will answer for you in the first person, teaching you the topic as it goes.

The future is now!

Specialty Expansion: The simulator is coming soon to Vascular, Colorectal, Surgical Oncology, CT Surgery, Pediatric Surgery, and even OBGYN!

Platform Integration: Look out for a big makeover as the simulator is fully integrated into the Behind the Knife app platform for a seamless and beautiful user experience.

Listen to the end for a full scenario run-through and a detailed breakdown of the scoring to see the improvements for yourself!
