How to BEST Use Your Online Question Banks

One of the most popular articles on the PBR site discusses the why board review questions can be a HORRIBLE study tool. It flies in the face of our traditional understanding of how to prepare for medical board exams.

The title of the article is, “Why AAP PREP Questions Are NOT The Best Study Questions.“

The general idea behind this is that questions from various board review sources are almost NEVER provided to you in a streamlined fashion that’s meant to systematically cover everything you need to know for the boards. 

So, why do we spend so much time focusing on questions?

For most of us, we believe FALSELY that doing so will result in a stronger knowledge base because we’ll SEE MORE INFORMATION. That’s the WRONG way to approach your board studies. If you have a single EXCELLENT pediatric board study guide (https://www.pediatricsboardreview.com/products), then you should be able to comfortably rely on that resource for your KNOWLEDGE bank.

Some of also believe that we’re likely to see repeat questions on the exam. That’s often true, BUT… I would argue that such thinking is still not the most important reason to go over tons and tons of questions.

So, How SHOULD We Focus Our Time Spent One Board Review Questions?

At the end of the day, the boards ARE kind of like a board game! Treat your review questions as such and use them to PRACTICE and MASTER the game. In an article titled, “Pediatric Board Questions – 3 Strategies to Skyrocket Your Score!” I even go into detail to show you a few EASY WAYS TO INCREASE YOUR BOARD SCORES!
The strategies are taken directly from the PBR Medical Board Prep Coaching course that we’ve used to helps TONS of people finally pass the boards after they had FAILED over and over again.

Does PBR Offer Board Review Questions?

YES! Something that is unique to the PBR Q&A experience is the fact that almost all of the answers/explanations are taken DIRECTLY from the PBR Core Study Guide. That means that even when you’re doing PBR questions for PRACTICE, you are actually also studying CORE review material from the study guide that gives you a 100% Money Back Pass Guarantee!
