To provide the information about overall test reliability and test improvement, we analyzed th first fundamental medical sciences examination at the Kon-Kuk University College of Medicin on August 23, 1997. The results are as follows :
1. The number of the items in the test is 230. The range of the scores is from 32.5 to 61.3(aver age percent age score: 50.0 ¡¾6.1). Among the 39 students, three(7.7%) passed the examinaton with percent age scores of higher than 60. 2. The correlation coefficients between the fundamental medical sciences examination an academic r ecor ds ar e 0.4682(t he fir st semest er in 1st gr ade), 0.5933(the second semester in 1s grade), and 0.6538(the first semester of 2nd grade), respectively. 3. Among the 230 items, 47(20.4%) are too difficult or too easy. Therefore these items are recommended to be discarded. 4. Among the 230 items, 115(50%) have lower discriminative indices (lower than 0.14) and 55(23.9%) have higher discriminative indices (higher than 0.23). 5. Among the 230 items, overall acceptable items are 101; the range of difficulty is 0.15 ¡0.84 and discriminative indices are higher than 0.15. Good acceptance is shows in pharmacology an microbiology.
