October 2012 Oral Exam Session Assignments Sent

August 3, 2012

On Friday, August 3, 2012, the ABO emailed session assignment information to all candidates registered for the
October 12-14, 2012 Oral Examination.  Candidates are assigned to one of three Examination sessions on Saturday and Sunday of the Examination weekend. 

Prior to sitting for the assigned Examination session, candidates must re-register on site with the ABO. The purpose of re-registration is to sign-in with the ABO and receive a name badge, a detailed schedule for the Examination, and instructions on where to go and what to expect.  The session assignment email includes the assigned Examination session and re-registration appointment.

Please note: re-registration/examination assignments cannot be changed. Candidates should make travel arrangements according to their Examination assignment AND re-registration time. To make hotel reservations at The Palace Hotel, click here.
