Exam Preparation

The Neuromuscular Ultrasound Certificate of Added Qualification is an examination administered online . Candidates can take the exam at any quiet location. The exam will use an artificial intelligence (AI) online proctor that will require candidates to have a webcam on their computer (webcam is not provided by ABEM). 

You will be given 2 hours to answer roughly 100 questions.
 
Prior to the computer-based examination, a detailed analysis of individual questions has been performed and a minimum passing score established. After completion of the exam, ABEM Executive Office Staff will notify candidates whether they passed or failed the examination.

No other information about the examination, examination results, or performance on subsections of the examination will be made available to the candidates.
