“BoardVitals is essential for any pathology resident preparing for boards. Their questions are insightful, and the explanations are extremely helpful.”
Cynthia ForkerMD
“I would recommend BoardVitals! I haven't taken the boards yet; however, there are quite a few questions in the database, and the layout of the site is very conducive to studying on the go (e.g. from one's cell phone). The site is very easy to use and allows you to power through questions quickly and track your progress and performance. I've seen familiar types of questions on the RISE exam as well. I hope I'll see them on the boards too!”
E. AkinMD
“I am currently studying for my pathology boards, and your question bank is great.”
Dr. GokhaleMD
“It's great to have a bank of so many questions, AP and CP, that I can take with me wherever I go—no need to drag around a heavy textbook! BoardVitals makes it easy to use even a few minutes of downtime!”
Sofia KaziMD Chief Resident at Mount Sinai Medical Center New York, NY
“I am a fourth-year pathology resident. I have not taken the board exam yet, but I could easily tell that questions would prepare you very well for the RISE exam since they cover all the important topics. We do not also have enough good question resources, so I would strongly suggest the BoardVitals Q bank, especially if you are a person who learns with questions. ”
H. DemirMD
“Board Vitals (BV) was essential for my board preparation. I am not a great test taker, and in order for me to have passed my AP/CP boards, I needed to do a LOT of questions, which is hard to come by (especially for CP). Not only was there a plethora of questions, they were all generally well-written and in the style of the actual boards. The material covered in BV was broad yet helpful in how I should focus my studies. Furthermore, the questions were confidence-boosting in that I actually knew more than what I thought; it was nice to know that I was comparable to my peers—and you will likely feel the same way. Lastly, I got quick and thorough feedback regarding any questions or issues I had about any questions I came across. In summary, BV is a gem that I am thankful for discovering. ”

Bibiana“This is GREAT! I studied with a question bank like this for USMLE. Now with my pathology boards looming in my future, I am so glad I found this!”
“I was a contributor and editor to this pathology question bank and have to say that I wish something like this existed for us when we were residents. It is a great way to study for the RISE while in residency, and it's also a great way to prepare for and pass the very difficult AP and CP boards. The images are great, and I especially find the explanations helpful. There is an ongoing process of adding and editing questions, so the bank is growing and improving every day.”
“BoardVitals is a really great resource for studying for the boards. Thanks so much for making that possible!”
