Don’t forget the exam fee
The biggest cost is the exam itself: $1,300 per ABFM’s 2026 booklet, plus a $100 late fee if you miss the first deadline, and $650 for a re-examination. Registering on time and passing first time save more than any discount on prep. See our ABFM exam cost guide.
Ways to pay less
- Join AAFP as a resident for free questions and resident course pricing ($1,045 for the livestream instead of $1,435).
- Ask about program pricing: AAFP’s Self-Study starts at $655 each when a program buys three or more.
- Apply by the first deadline to avoid ABFM’s $100 late fee.
- Withdraw early if you must: 30+ days ahead avoids the cancellation fee.
