    We found that rote memorization of the information is not the way to pass this exam. Rather, our course, is focused on equipping you with a skill set to dominate the exam regardless of specific topics. Our course is not divided into foot and rearfoot as many other prep courses are. Our format is unique and is the best way to give you the tools to pass ANY part of the exam.

    At this time we do not offer a group or hospital discount.  Our program is individualized. However, we do provide an invoice for your hospital GME to help reimburse you or your residents. Please email us for more information.

    No discounts. No refunds.

    The long answer is this: this course is designed for those who already have a strong base of surgical knowledge. The candidate should come prepared to strategize with us. BoardsBlast is not a course that spoon feeds material but rather a course that continually updates their case simulations and lectures based on the current exam model. Therefore, our course is always evolving.
