Many people who contact me have already been in practice for decades when their respective medical boards issue them an order to take the SPEX.

SPEX PREP INSTRUCTION MENTORED BY MARK DAVIS MD Special Purpose Examination is a complex test given by the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB). This exam is designed to fail.

SPEX is revenge from Medical Boards for Lapsed Licenses Special Purpose Examination (SPEX) is a test constructed in hell to punish physicians who were either forced from practice or allowed their licenses to lapse. Constructed by the politically active Federation of State Medical Boards, this test’s contents covers more than a dozen subjects. Federation officials claim general medical reading should allow one to sit for this test and pass, untrue. The failure rate is extremely high with many examinees taking this test two, three or more times. Medical Boards provide no insights or preparation to enable physicians to pass this strenuous examination. Literature provided by the Federation concerning SPEX is misleading and provides minimal help to the potential examinee. Books, pamphlets and test question material on the market are out of date, as most physician find out after their first failing grade. This is where a SPEX tutor/mentor is very helpful.
