MOORESVILLE, N.C., June 6, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- TrueLearn's American Academy of Neurology Residency In-Service Training Examination (AAN RITE) and American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology Certification Examination (ABPN Board Certification Exam) SmartBanks are now available to provide extensive board preparation for neurology residents.
TrueLearn offers SmartBanks in various medical specialties. After evaluating the field of Neurology, TrueLearn determined that these residents were in need of more test prep materials for both the AAN RITE and the ABPN Board Certification Exam.
The AAN RITE, precursor to the ABPN Board Certification Exam, is a yearly performance tracking test that communicates the progressing competency of Neurology residents as they advance through their postgraduate years. Acknowledging the importance of the AAN RITE as a performance indicator for the final board exam (ABPN Board Certification Exam), TrueLearn determined that the AAN RITE SmartBank following the official American Academy of Neurology (AAN) blueprint was necessary for long-term success. Likewise, TrueLearn also adapted the ABPN Board Certification Exam SmartBank to the blueprint provided by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN).
TrueLearn integrates learning science techniques including spaced repetition, and retrieval practice, to offer a personalized experience that allows residents to focus their efforts on the content that is strategically served to them. Behind the scenes, TrueLearn SmartBanks cater the questions and sequencing to the specific needs of the resident, preparing them on multiple levels for the upcoming exams.
TrueLearn's unique SmartBank offering provides high-quality practice questions that align with the AAN RITE and ABPN Board Certification Exam blueprints. Additionally, TrueLearn offers SmartTools designed to identify individual weak areas and enhance information retention. The SmartTools are available in all TrueLearn SmartBanks and customize the testing experience, ensuring score improvement and subject matter competency.
The American Academy of Neurology (AAN) conducted a study analyzing the relationship between AAN RITE performance and subsequent ABPN Board Certification Exam performance. The study concluded that a neurology resident's performance on the AAN RITE exam is indicative of their final ABPN Board Certification Exam score (see http://content.truelearn.com/AANStudy for the full report). The Neurology SmartBank will consist of 700 questions which will be refreshed with new content yearly.
