Recently TAGME certified program coordinator

I recently passed the TAGME certification exam. I had a lot of trouble finding any information about it so I want to try and share some wisdom in case there are any coordinators/PDs around wanting to get certified.

150 question exam, 5 hour time limit. I took it online. You can have a physical copy of the study guide as well as a digital one (with a search feature). Any practice questions I found online were helpful, but not actually representative of the question style in the exam. I knew 80% of the answers to the practice questions off the top of my head, but alternatively I had to look up 80% of the answers in the exam itself.

The exam is broken up by document. A large portion on residency requirements, a decent amount on ACGME policies and procedures, the least on ECFMG/NRMP.

5 hours is plenty of time. I ended up digging into the study guide to confirm answers to every question, going through the entire exam again, and still had an hour left.

It was tricker than I expected but still very doable, hopefully this helps someone.

Happy to answer questions if there are any.
