Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The authors discuss how stress influences the candidate's capacity to effectively prepare for and fully demonstrate his or her abilities in the oral examination in psychiatry given by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. They highlight subtle misconceptions about examiner priorities, attitudes, and evaluation methods and note common errors that reflect both anxiety and these misconceptions. They offer some advice and information to aid the candidate in coping with these examination difficulties.
