Comparison of Student Performance on M.D. Qualifying and Licensing Examinations.

Harasym, Peter

Assessment and Evaluation in Higher Education, v7 n2 p127-43 Sum 1982

A study investigated whether M.D. qualifying and certification examinations produced the same scores, pass levels, and educational outcomes. Data from 72 students showed the tests produce similar results. These findings imply the tests can also be used to predict student performance and for screening and diagnostic purposes. (Author/MSE)
