ABEM ACCM

The available source material does not describe an exam by that exact name. ABEM's site links continuing certification under "Stay Certified," including an Emergency Medicine module branded MyEMCert, plus MyToxCert, MyEMSCert and MySonoCert. Because the relevant pages returned errors, treat the name and structure as unconfirmed and verify directly with ABEM before registering.

Unknown from the available source. The pages that would carry those figures returned HTTP 404 when retrieved on 2026-10-31, so no item count or time limit is published here. Anyone quoting a number is working from memory or an older revision. Confirm current timing in MyABEM or by calling ABEM at (517) 332-4800.

Not stated in the source, so no passing standard is reported on this page. Passing standards for board assessments are usually set by criterion-referenced methods and revised periodically, which makes stale numbers especially dangerous. Check the ABEM exam and certification statistics page and your MyABEM account for the figure that applies to your attempt.

Unverified. The retrieved ABEM pages contained no retake policy, waiting period, or attempt limit, so none is stated here. Retake rules for continuing-certification modules often differ from those for initial qualifying exams, so do not assume a rule carries over. Request the current policy in writing from ABEM before planning a second attempt.

The ten domains listed on this page - cardiovascular, thoracic and respiratory, abdominal and gastrointestinal, nervous system, traumatic, toxicologic, environmental, musculoskeletal and soft tissue, systemic infectious and immune, and the mixed psychobehavioral/renal/urogenital/endocrine/hematologic category - are a provisional study taxonomy with equal 10% weights. They are not an ABEM-published blueprint and should be replaced once the official outline is retrieved.

Start with a timed baseline set spanning all ten domains to find your real weak spots, then spend focused blocks on the two lowest-scoring domains before cycling back for maintenance. Overweight the high-acuity content you actually manage - airway, resuscitation, toxicology, trauma. Reserve the final two weeks for mixed sets rather than new material.

Typical patterns: studying by re-reading instead of answering questions, skipping low-volume domains entirely, ignoring pacing on timed sets until late in preparation, and never reviewing wrong answers deeply enough to name the underlying reasoning error. Also common is trusting stale specifications - item counts or pass marks remembered from training - instead of the current ABEM source.

Sign in to MyABEM at myabem.abem.org, review the Stay Certified section of abem.org, and if pages still return errors, contact ABEM directly: 3000 Coolidge Road, East Lansing, MI 48823; (517) 332-4800. Ask for the current module list, deadlines, fees, and passing standard in writing so you hold a dated record.

No. This is an independent study resource and is not endorsed by, affiliated with, or sponsored by the American Board of Emergency Medicine. All questions and explanations here are original material. ABEM's own pages, MyABEM, and written correspondence from ABEM staff are the authoritative sources for registration, fees, deadlines, and scoring.
