Dear Colleagues,

This is a review of your references for the board exam in Neurology (Merritt’s 14th Ed. & Adams and Victor’s, 11th Ed.). We have tried to include the most important issues in an educational way, so you can test your knowledge and also learn some practical points in dealing with patients at the same time. Neither this work nor those references provide a complete foundation for your medical practice. You have to keep yourself updated and read the most recent advances in the field in order to be able to help your patients.

1. This review includes 3 levels of questions: basic, medium, and advanced.

2. Each level includes 10 questions.

3. You have to answer at least 8 questions correctly in order to advance to the next level.

4. If you fail to answer 8 or more questions correctly, you have to go to the previous level.

5. If you fail to answer 8 or more questions of the basic level correctly, you should stop the exam for at least one week until you review your references and get ready for the exam.

6. After you finish the advanced level successfully, please take part in a brief survey to evaluate this educational endeavor. This survey will be emailed to you.

7. After you finish the survey, please submit your responses to get your certificate of completion of the exam. Please send your responses to the survey to nahid.abolpour.92@gmail.com. You can download the survey, mark your responses, save the file, and send it to us.
