Built by surgeons, for surgeons.
This platform was not born in a product meeting. It was born in the gap between what surgical candidates need and what currently exists.
A resident preparing for FEBS-SO should not be using the same unfiltered question bank as someone sitting ABSITE. The content requirements are different. The exam format is different. The guideline corpus is different. Yet every platform on the market treats all surgical boards as a single undifferentiated blob.
No single resource covers both US and European certification pathways. Candidates preparing for FEBS specialty boards — HPB, Colorectal, Endocrine, Esophago-Gastric — have essentially no board-specific question bank to practice with. They compile their own materials from textbooks, guideline PDFs, and journal articles, and hope for the best.
SurgBoardsQ&A addresses all of this: board-specific question sets, explanations referenced to current guidelines (ESMO, NCCN, PSOGI, JGCA), automatic weak-area detection, and a single platform that grows as new boards are added.
Board-mapped content
Every question is tagged to a specific board and its official syllabus. Filter by FEBS-SO, ABS-CGSO, ABSITE, or any specialty FEBS exam.
Current guidelines
Explanations cite ESMO, NCCN, PSOGI, and JGCA where applicable. When guidelines change, the explanations change.
Written by a specialist
Questions and explanations are authored by a surgical oncologist with subspecialty expertise in peritoneal malignancy and sarcoma.
