Recognizing the pivotal role of the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) exams in assessing medical competencies, Dr. Katz emphasizes the integration of formative assessments to enrich the learning experience.

By championing formative assessments, Dr. Katz presents a compelling case for a more dynamic and effective NBME preparation strategy. His approach not only aims to improve exam performance but also to cultivate lifelong learning habits among medical students.
