Anesthesia Hub - BASIC & ADVANCED

The ABA has phased out the traditional Part 1 written exam. Residents now take the Staged Exams and the annual In-Training Exam.

The released 1990-1996 In-training Examinations, categorized into BASIC/ADVANCED may be searched:

The BASIC exam launched in July 2014 and is offered twice a year in June and November. To be eligible for the June exam, one must have completed 6 months of CA-1 training by March 31.

The ADVANCED exam launched in July 2016 and is offered twice a year in January and July. To be eligible for the July exam, one must have completed 6 months of CA-3 training by March 31.
