Board Prep Policy

In keeping with Summa Health's Internal Medicine Residency's core mission - to prepare medically, professionally, and interpersonally well-rounded physicians for practice and for preparation for the ABIM board exam.

We believe that progression through MKSAP multiple times as a resident is crucial. This program provides a framework of accountability that helps ensure this progression. At a minimum, each resident should get through MKSAP once every academic year which can be accomplished with the below stated program.
