MFM 2021 ORAL Exam Candidates

Your thesis is due September 30th! Make sure you have checked and re-checked the requirements, including page setup. It is also a great idea to have someone read over it and make sure your thesis manuscript is a good representation of the hard work you did on your research.
The case list isn’t due until February 1st, but this is also a good time to make sure you are entering the data and checking to make sure you have patients that represent all of the different categories you need to fill for the case list. If you find that you are missing some patient experience types, now is the time to find ways to get more clinical exposure so you can be sure to get those last rare conditions covered.
Interested in an MFM Thesis Review? It's still not too late to submit it to ABC, although we apply a late fee for submission after Thursday, September 16th.

Thesis Review Tip:
Thesis submission deadline is September 30th and there are specific guidelines for both the format and your cover sheet, so be sure to check the MFM bulletin on the ABOG website under the Publications tab. Also, it is a great time to start gathering your references for citations within your thesis. For some, it may have been a while since last reviewing your work, and the thesis review is often in the details.  Knowing the broad strengths and limitations of your study design is the first step to a successful defense at the oral boards. Also, doing a quick literature search for new publications, which support or refute your work, is helpful.  It is still more than six months away but stockpiling your review materials will go a long way when crunch time comes in March.
