Implementing the Objective Structured Clinical Examination in a Traditional Medical School.

Kowlowitz, Vicki; And Others

Academic Medicine, v66 n6 p345-47 Jun 1991

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill medical school uses an objective structured clinical examination as the final exam in physical diagnosis. Since 1987, students and evaluators have shown overwhelming acceptance and support of the test, partly because it is structured for teaching as well as assessment. (Author/MSE)
