Specialized Assessments Built by Exam Master

Measuring the outcomes you need to know.

We built our expertise and sharpened our tools over 28 years of working with graduate health professions students, faculty, administrators, and practitioners. We build high quality electronic assessments for board review, remediation, benchmarking, and more.

All of our specialized assessments are developed under the highest standards:

Whenever possible, we use the actual test plan, taxonomy, or blueprint from the official certifying authority.

We include only test items that match in form and structure item types found on the actual examinations.

These assessments are organized to have the same item count, similar content weighting, and similar overall structure as the actual exams upon which they are based.

All questions include detailed explanations and references.

Benchmark Exam for Pharmacy Curriculum Outcomes Assessment (PCOA)

 

Helping pharmacy schools measure student learning prior to clinical training.

 

For the last five years, we have been helping pharmacy schools assess their students in the core concepts found on the PCOA.  While the PCOA is not a mandatory examination, it is used by some pharmacy schools to assess whether their students are sufficiently prepared to engage in their clinical training (e.g. APPE’s). 

Features:

* Based on the actual PCOA test plan
* 225 test items covering four content domains
* Strong emphasis on comprehension and application learning domains
* Strong emphasis on pharmaceutical and clinical sciences
* Detailed explanations and rationales for all questions
* Includes available supplemental PCOA question bank

Exam Master’s PCOA practice exam helps pharmacy educators benchmark their students in time to identify knowledge gaps before clinicals start.

Physician Assistant College Admissions Test (PA-CAT)

 

Now available for use for newly admitted students in addition to the general applicant pool.

 

Exam Master developed the PA-CAT in response to a need expressed by PA program educators for an objective assessment of applicant academic readiness.  With the high degree of variability in educational backgrounds and prior academic experience of PA school applicants, programs needed a better way of making accurate comparisons of candidate academic preparedness.  The PA-CAT helps solve that.  Highlights:

  • Covers 9 prerequisite subjects most commonly required for admission to PA school
  • 240 single-best-answer test items
  • Strong emphasis on knowledge application
  • Strong emphasis on anatomy and physiology
  • Includes genetic and statistics

The PA-CAT is designed to measure as objectively as possible a candidate’s academic preparedness so that admissions teams can more accurately determine which candidates are most likely to succeed during the didactic phase of their learning.
