How to Get Your ABP Certification
The certification exam is one of the biggest exams you'll take in your career, and it can feel incredibly daunting. That's why we created learning tools tailored to the ABP content outline, so you get the most up-to-date, clear, and board-focused information available.

With the Pediatrics Study Strong Essentials, you'll study exactly what you need to know for your certification exam—no more, no less. This powerhouse package boosts your study with the combination of Pediatrics Core, Flashcards, and Q&As (get the All-Access package for digital and print formats of the Core and Flashcards plus $600 in savings). The digital versions of these study tools are all interlinked, so you can toggle back and forth across study formats covering the same topic area, to make sure it sticks in your head. In a single click, you can go from Core to Flashcards, Flashcards to Core; Q&As to Core, or Core to Q&As.
