Why should I register and attend?

We’re glad you asked! Here are five benefits past Residents have shared after participating in the Dermpath CORE Exam Review.

  1. It is 100% FREE.
    This review provides the opportunity to prepare for the board exam at no cost to you. Board Reviews can be very costly when you consider paying for airfare, renting a car, and getting a hotel room, all to sit under a microscope and look at cases. Now it’s all digital, and you can do all reviews from the luxury of your home!
  2. Live Access to Dermatopathologists.
    Dr. Tom Davis and Dr. DeSantis are double board certified dermatopathologists passionate about teaching residents. Therefore, their passion offers opportunities for residents to ask questions, get clarification on cases, and engage in real-time to get the answers they need. From there, they can build the necessary confidence for successful pass rates.
  3. No Year Requirement.
    Some training organizations limit who can register; we don’t! Regardless of your resident post-graduate year, you are welcome to participate.
  4. Access to Recorded Session.
    Immediately following our time together, you’ll have access to the recorded session. In addition, if you register and are unable to join live, you will still get access to the recorded session.
  5. Bring a Friend or Colleague.
    Registration isn’t limited, so feel free to encourage a friend or colleague to register and participate as well.
