Help shape ACP MKSAP! We are looking for physicians to answer ACP MKSAP questions as part of our pretesting process. This helps us psychometrically validate our self-assessment questions to ensure they are well-constructed, fair, and accurate, and to identify gaps in our learners' knowledge to guide content development. Question sets range from 30 to 40 questions. As a thank you, you will be entered to win a 1-year subscription to ACP MKSAP for each set of questions answered. Learn more about the testing guidelines and the requirements to participate. Space is limited: https://bit.ly/42rOQcC
