Anesthesiology Examination Format and Scoring
Both the BASIC and ADVANCED Exam consists of 200 questions and examinees have 4 hours to complete the exam. The BASIC Exam includes A-type items only. A-type questions are single-best-answer multiple-choice questions that require the application of knowledge rather than simple recall of factual information. These questions often include a brief clinical vignette followed by a lead-in question and four response options. Example of a single-best-answer multiple-choice question format:
Among patients from the emergency department, the traumatic incidence and age of patients are distributed in left-skewed character. Which of the following is correct?
◯ A. The mean is higher than the mode ◯ B. The median is higher than the mode ◯ C. The median is higher than the mean ◯ D. The mean is higher than the median
