OMSB Obstetrics and Gynecology (OEOG) study plan

OMSB Obstetrics and Gynecology (OEOG) · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

Obstetrics & Maternal-Fetal Medicine

  • Map the Obstetrics and Maternal-Fetal Medicine blueprint topics onto a one-page checklist, marking each as confident, shaky, or unknown

  • Review hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and classify each syndrome by diagnostic criteria, timing of onset, and maternal-fetal risk

  • Work through antepartum hemorrhage causes (placenta previa, abruption, vasa previa) and state the first management step for each

  • Build a personal error log template and record every missed practice question with the underlying knowledge gap rather than the answer letter

Your checkpoint

A completed Obstetrics/MFM topic checklist with self-rated confidence plus at least 40 logged practice questions

Week 2

Obstetrics & Maternal-Fetal Medicine

  • Explain intrapartum fetal heart rate interpretation using a structured category system and rehearse management for each category

  • Compare preterm labor, PPROM, and cervical insufficiency by diagnostic criteria and first-line management

  • Outline normal and abnormal labor progress, including dystocia causes and when operative delivery is indicated

  • Drill 60 mixed Obstetrics/MFM questions under timed conditions and categorize every error by cause

Your checkpoint

A one-page intrapartum fetal monitoring decision aid written from memory and checked against a reference

Week 3

Obstetrics & Maternal-Fetal Medicine

  • Review medical complications of pregnancy (diabetes, thyroid disease, cardiac disease, thrombophilia) and state pregnancy-specific management adjustments

  • Summarize postpartum hemorrhage prevention and a stepwise escalation sequence for management

  • Describe multiple gestation complications and timing of delivery by chorionicity

  • Recite key screening timelines across pregnancy (aneuploidy, gestational diabetes, group B Streptococcus, preeclampsia) without notes

Your checkpoint

A single-page antepartum screening timeline table reproduced from memory with no more than two errors

Week 4

Gynecology & Obstetrics

  • Review abnormal uterine bleeding by PALM-COEIN classification and match each category to initial workup

  • Compare contraceptive methods by efficacy, contraindications, and non-contraceptive benefits

  • Summarize sexually transmitted infection and pelvic inflammatory disease diagnosis and treatment principles

  • Complete a 100-question cumulative mock covering Obstetrics, MFM, and Gynecology, then analyze the score by domain

Your checkpoint

A cumulative mock exam score report with a written remediation list of the five weakest subtopics

Week 5

Gynecologic Oncology & Gynecology

  • Outline screening and diagnostic pathways for cervical, ovarian, and endometrial cancer, including staging principles

  • Explain gestational trophoblastic disease diagnosis, follow-up, and indications for chemotherapy

  • Review benign gynecologic pathology (fibroids, endometriosis, ovarian cysts) and indications for surgical versus medical management

  • Practice interpreting clinical vignettes to select the next best diagnostic step in suspected gynecologic malignancy

Your checkpoint

A comparison table of the three major gynecologic cancers covering risk factors, screening, staging, and primary treatment

Week 6

Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility & Urogynecology and Pelvic Reconstructive Surgery

  • Review the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis and classify anovulation by WHO group with matching first-line treatment

  • Summarize polycystic ovary syndrome diagnostic criteria and infertility workup sequencing for couples

  • Describe pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence types, their evaluation, and conservative versus surgical options

  • Explain menopause physiology and hormone therapy indications, risks, and contraindications

Your checkpoint

An infertility workup algorithm and a prolapse/incontinence management flowchart, each on one page

Week 7

Obstetrics & Gynecologic Oncology & Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility

  • Re-drill the weakest 60 questions from the error log until each concept is explained aloud without notes

  • Review high-yield obstetric emergencies (shoulder dystocia, cord prolapse, uterine rupture, eclampsia) and rehearse the immediate actions for each

  • Consolidate reproductive endocrinology pharmacology, including ovulation induction agents and their monitoring

  • Complete a second 100-question cumulative mock and compare domain scores against week 4

Your checkpoint

A before-and-after score comparison showing improvement in at least three of six domains

Week 8

Obstetrics & Gynecology & Gynecologic Oncology & Maternal-Fetal Medicine & Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility & Urogynecology and Pelvic Reconstructive Surgery

  • Complete two full-length timed simulations under exam conditions and review every incorrect and flagged item

  • Recite condensed summary sheets for all six domains from memory

  • Revisit only previously missed concepts and avoid introducing new material

  • Finalize exam-day logistics, including timing strategy and a plan for handling uncertain questions

Your checkpoint

Two completed full-length simulation score reports with a final one-page high-yield review sheet

Milestones

Week 2: Score at least 60 percent on a 40-question Obstetrics and MFM set and demonstrate correct interpretation of all fetal heart rate categories in a verbal walkthrough

Week 4: Score at least 65 percent on the first cumulative 100-question mock with no domain below 50 percent

Week 6: Complete the infertility workup algorithm and prolapse/incontinence flowchart from memory with at least 90 percent of decision nodes correct

Week 7: Improve cumulative mock score by at least 8 percentage points over week 4 and clear 70 percent in at least four of six domains

Week 8: Achieve at least 70 percent on both full-length simulations with stable timing of under 90 seconds per question
