The National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) offers Subject Examinations (SE) for students completing the Internal Medicine (IM) clerkship. There is a paucity of literature in regard to the efficacy of review methods prior to rendering said examination. Our medical center's residents conducted a structured review session in preparation for SE administration. The mean SE scores prior to and after the initiation of the resident-led review session were compared. There was no statistically significant association found between the mean NBME scores in the experimental or control groups. We propose that alternative methods be further assessed for efficacy.
