SPI · Exam Strategy
Are there many calculation problems in SPI Physics, or mostly concept questions?
You can only bring paper and a pen into the exam room, not a calculator. That alone tells you the math involved can't require one — what you'll see is simple hand-arithmetic (basic multiplication and division), barely more than that. A couple of harder calculation questions can show up as exceptions, but the overall share of calculation-based questions is small, and even those tend to be simple enough to work out by eye.
SPI · Exam Strategy
After passing SPI, which exam do people usually prepare next (Abdomen? OB/GYN?)?
The single best predictor of actually finishing whatever exam you study next is genuine interest, not a "recommended path." ARDMS prep isn't a fixed, clearly mapped process — it's a long, somewhat open-ended effort, and interest is what keeps you going through that uncertainty. If you're drawn to Abdomen, study Abdomen next. If you're drawn to something else, follow that instead — it gives you the best odds of actually seeing it through to the end.
