Board-focused Faculty
Remember, the American Board of Internal Medicine certification exam tests tests you on the entire breadth of your specialty, beyond what’s practical in your day-to-day. Let our knowledgeable faculty guide you through a comprehensive review that covers exactly what the Internal Medicine Exam Blueprint dictates.
FAQs – The Pass Machine Internal Medicine Board Review
Is The Pass Machine different from other board reviews?
Yes, in three main ways:
1. The Pass Machine board review is the most comprehensive option. More than just a Question Bank of practice questions, each course includes in-depth lectures in a familiar classroom setting presented by expert faculty. This means you get a topic-by-topic review of exactly what’s on the board exam in much greater detail than what you can get from QBank answer explanations.
2. Because the physician’s schedule is typically a hectic one, The Pass Machine is optimized for on-the-go review. Components such as the audio-only lecture option, iOS and Android app for mobile review, and offline access capability, and a fully illustrated board-mapped study guide make The Pass Machine review easy to incorporate at any point your daily routine.
3. The Triple Trust Guarantee not only gives you a full tuition refund if you don’t pass the exam the first time after taking the course, but it also gives you an extra 10% and free subscription renewal. This unprecedented guarantee serves to assure you of the confidence we have that The Pass Machine content is exceptional.
Who produces The Pass Machine Courses? Where do you get your faculty?
The Pass Machine board review courses are produced by American Physician Institute for Advanced Professional Studies, LLC (API). API conducts dozens of courses and trains thousands of physicians each year to pass their boards and stay up to date in their fields. Every single one of American Physician Institute‘s educational courses has full editorial independence, is free of pharmaceutical and industry sponsorship and is backed by an unbeatable guarantee. Because of its reputation for excellence, American Physician Institute is able to enlist many of the top faculty from the best universities, teaching hospitals and research facilities in the country to provide you with Category 1 CME educational activities.
Do you provide board review for other medical specialties?
Yes! In fact, we provide preparation for dozens of other specialty and subspecialty board exams. Check out www.AmericanPhysician.com for the full list.
Is it likely that my employer will cover my tuition?
Because all The Pass Machine courses are approved for AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™, it is likely that your tuition will be reimbursed. You may be surprised at how many residency and fellowship training programs, group practices, and other employers pay for or reimburse you for such Category 1 educational activities. After all, it’s in everyone’s best interests to have you board certified. It really pays to ask your training director, medical director, or administrator if you are eligible because some training programs and employers do pay for board exam training. And, if you work for the Federal Government, American Physician Institute is a certified business in the CCR database and can accept government checks and credit cards.
Does The Pass Machine offer any free board review resources?
Yes! Start with our Medical Board Review Blog. There are general articles featuring board prep tips, and articles on board prep that are more board specific.

Board Exam Results and the Triple Trust Guarantee
Is The Pass Machine Internal Medicine review pass-guaranteed?
Yes, all full courses are pass-guaranteed, and backed by our Triple Trust Guarantee. At any time, you can view the Triple Trust Guarantee Terms & Conditions.
What does the Triple Trust Guarantee cover?
If you purchase a course with a “Triple Trust Guarantee” and fail the board exam for which this course is designed, API will issue a 100% refund of your paid tuition*, plus an additional 10%, plus free subscription renewal. The guarantee expires in the event the exam for which this course is designed is no longer offered by the certifying board.
* Tuition is defined as the amount you paid for your base course, and does not include optional course add-ons, such as purchase of online access extensions, and/or the live course attendance option (where available). If any promotional items, such as gift cards, are included with your purchase, the value of that promotional item will be deducted from your tuition.
The Triple Trust Guarantee sounds too good to be true—is it for real?
Yes, it’s completely real. Rest assured, API has always honored its guarantees and always will. The Triple Trust Guarantee is API’s way of demonstrating that it’s just as invested in your success as you are. After all, if you fail your board exam, API will pay a penalty. API will refund your course tuition in full, provide you with a bonus, and provide you with free subscription renewal. The guarantee ensures API doesn’t get paid for effort, only for passing results.
Does the Triple Trust Guarantee cover non-tuition course options and upgrades?
No. Course options and upgrades are non-tuition related. Therefore, these fees are not included in any guarantee-related refund payment made under the terms of the Triple Trust Guarantee.
What should I do if I don’t pass my board exam?
First, it’s important to remember that a non-passing result is not necessarily a reflection on your abilities as a physician. The way the ABIM tests you is not the same as the many ways you’re “tested” as a practicing physician. Check out this reassuring video from Dr. Jack - What To Do If You Fail Your Board Exam https://www.thepassmachine.com//video-what-to-do-fail-your-board-exam/
More to the point, American Physician Institute can work with you to help you get over this professional hurdle. Give us a call!
I didn’t pass my board exam. How do I activate my course guarantee?
To activate your guarantee, you must notify American Physician of your failure to pass your board exam and submit a copy of your exam notification and scores. To be eligible for the refund portion of the guarantee you must submit your documents within 45 days of the date of your exam fail notification. To notify American Physician and submit your documents, go to your course dashboard, and click on the "Guarantee" tab. Complete the form and attach your exam notification and scores.

In these cases, The Pass Machine allows course registrants to extend the life of their course by 12 months for an additional fee.

Read What Your Colleagues Are Saying About The Pass Machine Internal Medicine Board Review
"I used The Pass Machine IM Board Review course and found the lectures very helpful to review core material. The QBank often mirrored questions I faced on my examination. I passed!"
Eric Nielsen, MD, Grafton, MA
"I took the IM recertification exam last October and passed. I used The Pass Machine for my preparation. It is a very detailed and comprehensive course. The speakers were excellent. I really enjoyed Dr.Raj 's teaching. Very informative course. Gave me a lot of confidence. My advice to test takers is start preparing at least six months in advance so you can cover all topics in time. Good Luck!"
Vijaya Vasudevan, MD, St. Charles, MO
"Pass machine internal medicine board review course was recommended to me by my colleague. He told that he passed his exam after taking this course. I was a bit skeptical. You will find a big variety of board prep courses, and after one of those very popular one, I have failed. I took this course, and have listened all the lectures, went through the questions and passed my board. The good news is that they give you the guarantee, which did not require for me, since I have passed. Another good thing is, of course, important one, the price, it’s worth every penny and not as expensive as other courses. Definitely I plan to use this course for future preparation! Good luck with your next exam!"
Elena Sokolova, MD, Boca Raton, FL
"The course is actually excellent. Passed with great score!"
Eduardo López García, MD, Lakeland, FL
"I have used The Pass Machine for my last two ABIM boards. I am impressed by ability of the expert lecturers to share their knowledge and their ability to make it simple. They covered all the major areas of the test enabling me to pass what was most likely my last board test (yeaaah!). Thank you!"
Gerald Brantley, MD, Perry, GA
"Has all new updated guidelines, new recommendations, new studies. Everything you need to pass the boards. Very comprehensive, but all important … I took this course 9 years ago, pass! I took this course this year, pass! And your app is the Best! You can have it all on your phone! Thanks, you are the best preparation for MOC!"
Daniela Spitzer, MD, New York, NY
"I took the board exam multiple times with other materials, but to no avail, and this year I used The Pass Machine video tutorials, and exam questions, with desired result of passing my ABIM BOARDS with no difficulty.
The pass guarantee with full refund in case of failure is a cherry on top, and the customer service is another plus."
Liaqat Sabir, MD, Sartell, MN
"The lectures and the question bank covered a lot of territory. I was over prepared for the test as the test had changed in asking approach to treat questions rather than memorization. Overall, it was a good refresher of old and brought in new information I wouldn't come across in my practice."
Karen Josephson, MD, Mapleton, UT
"I would like to thank you for the ABIM board review course. I received my passing score yesterday and your course and set of lecturers had a centerpiece in my preparation for this examination. This is the second time that I have taken your course in preparation for my ABIM board exam. I took the course 10 years ago and again it was my guiding light into passing this exam. I just wanted to personally thank you for the great work you do in hiring excellent lecturers."
Ramon Cheleuitte, MD, Winthrop, ME
"I am an Internist who has worked as a Hospitalist for the past 25 years and had to renew my IM board certification twice since 1995. However due to my extremely busy schedule this third recertification became a major hassle as I had no time to spare to attend any course or review sessions and therefore my readiness to sit for the recertification exam got delayed by several years. The requirements of my job prevented me from taking time off as I own my own business and have to compete with large hospitalist companies. This requires 24/7/365 commitment. So how does one keep working every day and still manage to refresh IM knowledge base? It requires highly focused tutoring by some very talented instructors, all experts in their fields to instruct me on my demand whenever I had minutes to spare... Yes The Pass Machine is designed as such - allows me to tailor my education on my terms. And it worked beautifully. I must also say that especially Dr. Raj who is a very gifted instructor and Dr. Jack, Dr. Nayak, Dr. Shuja, Dr Blinder (whom I know personally) Dr. Olson, Dr. Whitter, Dr. Mc Coyd were SUPERB and highly effective instructors in refreshing my knowledge. I could not have done it without you guys. I also found myself actually appreciating acid/base issues and electrolyte physiology better than ever before - I was impressed. Thank you Thank you. The Pass Machine is EXACTLY as advertised. If you put the time into seriously and methodically going through the material - YOU JUST CAN'T FAIL! I guarantee it! Again thank you Dr. Jack for a job well done - the experience is priceless and your team is superb - especially Dr Raj - The best instructor I've ever seen. Thank you Thank you Thank you."
Ahmet Guler, MD, Dardenne Prairie, MO
“Getting away from the office for a week and focusing on studying for this exam was just what I needed. I was able to stop worrying about how I was going to tackle this material and start narrowing down what I needed to focus on and identifying any weak points. I am thrilled to report that I passed my exam October 2010. Thank you Dr. Krasuski for organizing and developing this course!”
Allison Goldsmith, MD, Columbus, OH
“I found the course you gave the best review course I have ever attended. Since I have been in practice for 25 years I can offer a degree of validity to that statement. Your speakers provided clear concise and informative information about their subjects and gave insights into pathophysiology that I never knew existed. It cleared up a lot of doubts. I had in some of the areas I don’t always practice. I am using the online video to review and believe that is one of the most important aspects of this. I will also do the review questions after I have completed the lectures again. Your support staff were professional and ran the program like a military operation. Cudos to you for having come up with a superior product.”
Jorge Gardyn, MD, Amityville, NY
“I have the story of all stories. Previously I had failed the initial certification (Internal Medicine) exam 4 to 6 times. The ABIM notified me that was my last attempt to pass, otherwise I would have to go back to do at least another year of Internal Medicine Residency to regain my Board Eligibility status...my 10 year exemption was up.
I did The Pass Machine live review course in Chicago, went thru all live lectures at least 1 more time, went thru all written lecture notes at least twice. Did the entire Q-bank.....TWICE for a total of just shy of 5,000 questions...
My compliment is this......I PASSSED!!!!!!! My situation couldn't have been any more critical with a new house, wife and kids. I would have lost my current job. I personally can't THANK API enough and can only hope my story helps others and becomes advertised widely within API. To all of API.....thank you, thank you and thank you again. I am forever in your debt.”
Todd Gray, MD, Davenport, IA
“I have been impressed with the course, including the depth of topic coverage, as well as the panel of physicians chosen as speakers. When I first signed up for the course, I did not know of anyone else who had taken the course. This course has provided me with didactic sessions and with materials I will be able to review at home in several formats, as well as board-style questions/answers. I compared to other board review courses – no other course offered all of these features and backed with the guarantee. I would highly recommend this course.”
Daniel Duran, MD, Knoxville, TN
“This course proved to be absolutely essential to passing the IM board exam! Each of the topic lectures were comprehensive yet concise enough to feel comfortable with answering any board question. Even the Acid-Base lecture was easy to follow. Planning to sign up again once MOC exam rears its ugly head!”
Allison Goldsmith, MD, Columbus, OH
“Best overall board course I have ever taken! In addition to the well-organized course materials, the faculty are attentive to important clinical pearls needed not only for passing the boards, but also important for providing excellent competent care for our patients with the latest best practices. The triple guarantee and attention to important details (excellent course materials, even markers, ad meals at a cost-effective hotel with a better negotiated rate) were much-appreciated bonuses. The availability to have an onsite as well as online course makes this an excellent choice.”
Valerie Pronio Stelluto, MD, FACP, West Roxbury, MA
“This review course was a fantastic review of Internal Medicine in regards to its focus on the IM Board Exam. It will be very useful in my clinical practice as well. The course was very attentive to my educational needs in helping me to optimize studying in the most effective way. The addition of online videos and questions further increased my satisfaction with this review. Finally, the specialists in each field represented here were exceptional.”
Jay Patel, MD, Aurora, OH
“I use the materials from the course for my clinical and expert witness work. Not only did I pass the test, I saw the material in a different way so it wasn't just rote memorization. Thank you.”
Karen Josephson, MD, Long Beach, CA
“I think this is a great review course. The information is relevant and speakers were all excellent. I would recommend this course to anyone.”
William Slama, MD, Zionsville, IN
“I think this was an excellent amount of information delivered in this short time. I have yet to do the exam to find out how the course helps. Irrespective of the exam, it is a good way to brush up and feel confident about practicing medicine. Speakers were great, knowledgeable and great presenters for the most part.”
Savita Sheth, MD, South Windsor, CT
“Overall, the course is very good. The convenience of being able to study at home cannot be overstated. The lectures were informative, educational and cleared up some ‘muddy waters’ issues for me. I learned something of value from every lecture.”
Mary Pellioni, MD, Temperance, MI
“Well-organized and pertinent material was the main focus, avoiding less helpful areas of internal medicine. The speakers were good and engaging. There was more than adequate time for some one-on-one interaction with the lecturers. Online access outside the conference venue was a big plus. I strongly recommend this course.”
Henry Roy, MD, Sweden, ME
“A great course! Choice of location (Arlington Heights, IL) was wonderful. For the intensity and focus required, it was refreshing to be away from the congestion of the down town, big-city areas. With the scope to be covered, I believe the presenters did a great job!”
Nzeribe, MD, Crystal Lake, IL
“The conference was compact and intense, but did hit all the major topics expected on the Board exam. Lecturers were very knowledgeable and audio-visual aids / slides were thorough. I would definitely recommend this course."
Faith M. Gray, MD, Atlanta, GA
“The whole course was excellent and well planned. I always like to attend live programs, it gets me out of my busy schedule. I would like to congratulate and commend you and all your staff for the excellent set up.”
Khalid Rauf, MD, Mader, CA
“I found The Pass Machine is an excellent course for review. After studying and preparing for the ABIM, The Pass Machine provided the last touches of knowledge that helped in preparation for the ABIM.”
Denyce Nichols, MD, Olympia Fields, IL
“Thank you for this very well-organized review, packed with high-yield facts and buzzwords. The presenters were excellent –they held our attention and gave frequent small breaks to keep it fresh. Highly recommend.”
Angela Self, MD, Fort Worth, TX
“Cardiology, internal medicine questions, GI.Pulmonary. ID, and Rhematology were great. Nephrologist was a very good teacher. He really simplified the formulas and helped to better understand Acid/Base.”
Sangita Patel, MD, Harvard, IL
“Comprehensive, focused and straight forward. Course is well organized, well prepared by the organizers, presenters and support staff very helpful and courteous.”
Sudha Cheekat, MD, Alpharetta, GA
“Whirlwind review with updates as well as review of basics that we don’t often think of in day-to-day practice. Hopefully I won’t be taking advantage of the guarantee!”
F. DeChurch, MD, Reidsville, NC
“Course was good overall. Some of the best presentations were in Cardiology (Dr. Kapoor) and Pulmonology – best presenters of these two topics, which was helpful.”
Annie-Marie Cole, MD, New Hope, MN
“A lot of good information; Overall well presented by excellent speakers. I appreciate the take-home course materials and ability to review lectures online.”
Mary Barres, MD, Louisville, KY
“This was an excellent review course – the core topics of IM were discussed without excessive detail. The course was very board-specific. It is an efficient way to learn about IM and score well at the boards.”
Christian Lu, MD, Irvine, CA
“I appreciated the pace of the Internal Medicine Board Review course. All of the speakers were well organized and moved very quickly through the material. I feel we covered almost all of the important topics necessary to do well on the boards.”
Joseph Gaburl, MD, Columbia, SC
“Complete and detailed lectures. Complete review of all material. Better than my medical school and residency teaching. Most comments and lectures helping in my practice in addition to review for board exams.”
Michael Toiserkani, MD, Los Angeles, CA
“This is a concise, detailed review more intense than other review courses I’ve taken. The concept of questions followed by lectures then more questions keep me focused”

“As an internal medicine and pediatrics physician, I had to maintain certification for both boards. I first took the pediatrics course and passed the exam. I just completed the Internal Medicine Board Review course. Again, I passed with a score well above the mean. Both times, I felt I was well prepared for the exams. The study material and questions were very representative of the questions on the board exams. Major topics were highlighted by the lectures and study materials. I have recommended this course to my colleagues who have come back to thank me for letting them know about this excellent course. I definitely will be taking the course again when I am due to recertify again.”
Hugh Pabarue, MD, Macomb, MI
“I first took the IM boards right after residency and used MKSAP. I failed. I then retook the exam a few years later, again using MKSAP, and just barely passed. Now, 10 years later, for the MOC exam, I again used MKSAP and failed the exam. This past fall, I saw The Pass Machine and decided to try it out as I was striking out with MKSAP. I went to The Pass Machine in Las Vegas, and studied exclusively with your materials for this exam. I am happy to report that I SMOKED the MOC exam thereafter -- I didn't just barely pass, I SMOKED it with a very high score.
Sandra Barton, MD, Portland, OR
“I signed up for your Internal Medicine Board Review course for the ABIM maintenance of certification exam preparation. I was very pleased with your program as a video with many test questions. Your speakers were clear, concise and dynamic. The test questions were mostly very good and helpful in identifying those subtleties the boards always seem to include in their tests. I am pleased and proud to say I passed. Thank you for your help.”
Catherine R. Landers, MD, Skokie, IL
“I loved The Pass Machine. It was intense and packed full of both the obvious and obscure. I was reassured that much of the material presented was familiar to me and those old "pearls" from medical school and residency came flying back from the dark reaches of my memory banks. The course instructors effectively guided me and the other attendees through the realm of Internal Medicine and most sub-specialty areas. They were spot-on! Almost all of the questions on my exam had been covered by the Pass Machine course material and very little of the study guide "lists" material was needed. The material presented was not new, it just needed refreshing and The Pass Machine did that. I can't say that I was completely confident going in to my ABIM exam, but when I saw so many familiar topics and questions, I was pretty confident coming out. 2 months later when my "pass" letter came, I was not surprised. I feel the refresher course (that’s how I think of The Pass Machine now) has made me a better internist. I will take the course again in about 5 years, well before my next recertification, just to keep me up to date. Thanks, Pass Machine.”
Sarah Meloche, MD, Friendswood, TX
“I'm a busy practicing physician, mother, and wife and had no time to take off or start preparing months in advance for recertification. I really found this Internal Medicine Board Review helped my practicing knowledge as well as pass the boards. The material was comprehensive and yet relevant to the boards. All the speakers were well prepared. Best of all, I could listen to the lectures at my convenience. I would highly recommend it to my colleagues. In fact, I persuaded my husband to try it and he passed the boards the following year! Thanks!”
Sabahat Nawab, MD, McLean, VA
“I passed the ABIM/MOC with a high grade. The American Physician Institute prepared me well to pass the boards. The American Physician Institute provides a balanced, bias-free, and well organized continuing medical education program which prepares us for the challenges of certification and recertification. It is a great preparation course for your boards.”
Mohamed Abouhasira, MD, Midlothian, VA
“Thank you again for this course. I was able to successfully pass the boards. The information provided was concise and accurate without extraneous filler. I will recommend this to my peers!”
Debjoti Sensharma, MD, Phoenix, AZ
“The Internal Medicine Board Review course was a complete, concise and engaging review of General Internal Medicine. I took the course for recertification and passed! Although, I have recertified I plan on listening to the lectures again! I enjoyed the lectures very much.”
Geraldine Darroca, MD, Carmel, IN
“The Pass Machine Board Recertification prep course helped me immensely and was a critical factor in my passing first time. I feel that without having attended the course, despite my private study over many months, it would have been a real challenge! I found the prep questions we went through during the various modules were at precisely the level of difficulty of the exam itself, and in that regard were an ideal form of preparation. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend your course to anyone preparing for Boards for the first time, or for re-certification.”
Christopher Da Costa, MD, Furlong, PA
“I took the Internal Medicine recertification exam in September 2012. This was my first time to recertify in IM. As an osteopathic physician I was required to attend the ACOI Internal Medicine Board Review course. I also signed up for the Pass Machine’s online course. I found the Pass Machine lectures easy to watch, engaging and very thorough. As a sub-specialist I have not practiced Internal Medicine since my residency and have thus forgotten a lot of the material. The Pass Machine provided a comprehensive review of material I had not thought of in 10 years! Compared to the board review course I was required to take, the Pass Machine was by far superior and more thorough. I particularly liked the sample questions. They were effective at getting you back into test taking mode. I also like that you can have access to all of the materials by purchasing the online only version. I was 7 months pregnant with twins when the in-person course was offered and unable to travel, so the online option was perfect for me. One of the first questions on my recertification exam was covered directly in one of the lectures I watched the night before the exam! I am extremely pleased that I purchased this course and have recommended it to many of my colleagues facing recertification.”
Jessica Hals, DO, FACOI, Fort Worth, TX
“There were many board review courses to choose from; however, I chose The Pass Machine because of the location, the timing, and the guarantee that I would pass. Other positives included the syllabus of medicine topics, the fact that I could review the lectures I attended on-line, and the many practice exams at my fingertips. After returning home, I reviewed the syllabus, watched some of the lectures on-line, and as test time drew closer, I used the practice exams as a method of studying. I was very pleased with your course and I would recommend it to anyone recertifying for internal medicine. Thank you.”
Sonia Proudfoot, MD, Somerset, KY
“There is so much information to study, it is hard to know what to review for the MOC. Taking this course allows you to focus on the subjects to the extent necessary to Pass the Internal Medicine MOC. If you know what is in this material, it will be enough to pass!”
Scott Brasseur, MD, Hastings, MI
“This has been the most useful part of my effort to prepare for Recertification in Internal Medicine. The lectures are interesting and remind me of so much I would have forgotten. The instructors clearly focus on the material that we need. They are all well-spoken, organized and coherent. Terrific course!”
Alice Emery, MD, Grand Rapids, MI
“This was the second time I had to sit for the recertification examination. The course was well worth the time, effort and cost. I was very impressed with the study guide, the lectures, the online review and MOC test questions. I highly recommend the class to all of my colleagues and I'm sure I'll be seeing you again in ten years!”
Paul Schwartz, MD, Delray Beach, FL
