0:00.0	Hello and welcome back to ACRAC. I'm Jed Wolfau and I am thrilled to be here today with one of my
0:20.1	colleagues here at Johns Hopkins, one of my former residents, former chief residents, a fantastic
0:24.8	person, Dr. Anna Gitterman. And we've got a great show for you today. Before we start, I want to
0:29.6	just remind everyone that we now have CME available by the wonderful company CMEFI. It makes it
0:38.5	incredibly easy. If you want to get CME through ACRAC, just look on the show notes and ACRAC.com.
0:43.5	You'll see a link. You click on that. You do a very quick about 30-second reflection and pay a
0:48.7	small fee. And you can get your CME credits. It's going to be much cheaper than paying for a CME
0:53.8	conference. And much, much easier if you're listening to the episode anyway. So check that out.
0:59.2	If you need CME credits. All right. So today, we, based on popular demand, are going to do another

1:38.1	so glad to be here today. I know oral boards can be certainly a frightening topic. So I think it's
1:44.0	certainly a valuable thing to review. In terms of when you are eligible to take your oral boards,
1:51.2	it is after that you take your advanced exam when you graduate, typically the July after your
1:55.8	CA three year. So when you find out that you've passed your advanced exam, you are then eligible
2:00.2	to sign up for the applied exam. And there's two components to the applied exam. It's the
2:04.4	standard oral examination, which is what we'll be doing today. And that's also coupled with an
2:08.5	ASCII that are typically performed in the same day. Previously, people would travel to a hotel and
2:15.0	take the exam in person during COVID. It has been transitioned to a virtual format. And I believe
