All of the final exam items are reviewed for cut scores and are adjusted based on actual results and the Nedelsky method of calculating cut scores. Each final exam is reviewed and evaluated for difficulty and discrimination and piloted to over 100 individuals prior to implementation with program and medical director feedback as well.
