Colleges have followed best educational advice as to how to assess such complex clinical skills. MRCP(UK) has developed the ‘best of five’ format question to test real clinical scenarios and offer five feasible alternative answers to a diagnostic, investigation or management problem. One option is always agreed to be the most correct. This format reflects the clinical dilemmas and options available in practice. The full curriculum is tested by following a blueprint that ensures that a fixed proportion of all subjects are selected for each diet of the examination. The reliability of the examination is ensured by providing sufficient questions (200) to make certain that the assessment would give reproducible results in each cohort of candidates. The standard for each diet is set in advance by a standard setting group who consider the complexity of each individual question and award it a mark, which then contributes to an overall criterion referenced pass mark for that diet.
