We all understand the need to be tested to make sure that we are competent physicians, but the cost of the Pulmonary Board Exam and the review materials needed to pass it is nothing short of extortion. An entire industry (ABIM, MOC, licensing, online education, simulation) has arisen to take physicians paychecks in the interest of "making sure we are good enough". It bothers me. I created this Pulmonary Board Review app with over 600 questions essential for passing the Pulmonary Boards. I made it at the cheapest price possible given the apple developer license and the time I spent writing it. I plan on updating it with no additional cost after the initial purchase.
The questions cover 16 major areas in Pulmonary Medicine from Infectious Diseases to Sleep Medicine to Transplant Medicine and more. Questions include images and full explanations with references to the primary literature. Your results are stored on your device and your score is broken down by topic you so can track your progress and weak areas.
I am not only a programmer, but also a physician. And this is a software company of one. If you find a question that you disagree with, contact me. If new literature comes out which invalids a question, let me know. If you want to contribute questions, send them to me and ill get them in.
Good luck studying and good luck on your Pulmonary Boards...youre going to need it :)
