Stillman, Paula L.; And Others

Academic Medicine, v66 n9 suppl pS25-27 Sep 1991

A study investigated possible differences in standardized patient examination scores for three groups of undergraduate (n=176) and graduate (n=221) medical students assessed at different sites over two years. Results show no systematic change in scores over testing dates, suggesting no problems with breach of test security. (MSE)
