Assessment system is designed by each medical school with reference to some general rules: 1)
assessment system must be able to assess students' attainment of the pre-determined competencies,
2) pass/fail standard is determined using the criterion-referenced method, 3) both hard and soft skills
must be assessed, 4) the principles of validity, reliability, feasibility and educational impact must be
taken into consideration when designing the assessment system.
Common assessment methods: written assessment (for example: MCQ, essay, MEQ/modified essay
questions), skills/performance based asssessment (for example: OSPE/Objective Structured Practical
Examination, OSCE/Objective Structured Clinical Examination, long case examination, checklist),
logbook and portfolio. Students are also assessed through case reports/presentations, research
projects and written papers.
