2008 Mock Lab Animal Boards Examination Coalition

Seven sites have joined together to write and offer a single mock examination at multiple sites over the next 6 months.  The same 2008 mock exam will be given at each participating site and will be posted at this web page after the final site has completed their meeting.  The intent of the participating members is that by offering the same exam in multiple geographic centers, people will be able to minimize their travel during participation.  Each site may also have additional resources available for participants.   Contact the representatives below for additional information:

DISCLAIMER: There is no guarantee that the 2008 mock exam being offered will accurately reflect the actual 2008 ACLAM certifying exam in terms of content or format.  The mock exam is meant to be a learning experience and a resource in preparing for ACLAM certifying exams.
