Assessment Products Assess & Learn Subject Examinations SUBJECT EXAMINATIONS Subject Examinations allow you to measure your students’ knowledge and understand how their performance compares to examinees in medical schools throughout the United States. PROGRAM GUIDE Compare Performance against National Norms When assessing your students at the end of a course or clerkship, it helps to know how their performance compares to examinees on a national level. That’s why medical schools rely on our Subject Exam Program. It provides national normative data that reflects the performance of examinees from medical schools accredited by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME). The Subject Exams are developed by committees of content experts and include score reports that deliver actionable performance feedback.
