The NBME Subject Examinations, commonly referred to as the NBME Shelf Exams, are a series of subject specific standardized tests administered after certain 3rd year rotations. The exams are used at virtually all LCME-accredited medical schools in the United States and Canada, as well as many osteopathic medical schools, and approximately 25 international schools. The Pediatrics Shelf Exam is designed to test student knowledge on the normal development of humans from birth to adulthood and the unique conditions and illnesses that can affect children at various stages of life.
