This is an evidence-based practice test for the ABPTS orthopedic certified specialist exam that has been reviewed for the 2025 exam cycle! Content focuses heavily on the 5th edition Current Concepts, APTA Clinical Practice Guidelines, and relevant up-to-date literature to best prepare you for the content that will be included on the exam. Each question is personally researched and written to test your knowledge of crucial didactic material under the lens of clinical reasoning concepts most often utilized in OCS questions. Questions are presented in 8 total groups with answers to follow each group. Detailed explanations and references for each question are provided in the answer bank to help direct your follow-up studying. There is also a list of study tips and resources recommended by the author. Many of the questions on this practice exam are case-based to efficiently test on a larger amount of material. However, some of the scenarios offer very little information and challenge clinical judgment, which is sure to be a theme on the OCS exam. This exam is meant to be a resource that is representative of the difficulty level found on the OCS exam; it addresses a wide range of high-yield topics, as well as some obscure subject matter that may pop up on the exam. Good luck!
