About
This CME-only version of the Self-Assessment Examination offers the user a learn-while-testing experience in which the correct answer and discussion are revealed after submitting each individual question. This differs from the MOC version of the examination which requires the user to complete all 200 questions before receiving the correct answers and discussion guide. If you are an orthopaedic or plastic surgeon and do not need this examination to count toward your MOC self-assessment requirement, this is the correct exam for you. You will still earn 20 CME credits upon completion of the exam. The content of this exam mirrors the MOC version.
This examination is for all test takers except for general surgeons. The required passing score is 50%.
