INTERPRETATION OF OVERALL PERFORMANCE
The American Board of Internal Medicine Internal Medicine Maintenance of
Certication Examination is a standardized test that ensures all examinees
experience the same level of difculty to successfully complete the exam.
Overall performance is reported on a standardized scale ranging from 200 to
800 points. Your performance on the entire exam determines the exam pass-
fail decision. To pass the exam, your standardized score must equal or exceed
the standardized passing score of 366.The graph on page one shows your
performance relative to both the standardized passing score and to a reference
group of diplomates who took this exam in recent years. The links to the right
provide more information related to understanding your overall performance.
CONTENT AREA SUBSCORES AND FEEDBACK
The table below is an overview of your relative strengths and weaknesses in the
medical content areas. Your standardized score in each medical content area
is reported in standard deviation units above and below the reference group
average (vertical dotted line). Due to the limited number of questions in each
content area, content area subscores are less precise than the overall score.
Narrower boxes indicate a greater level of precision in calculating your score.
Because the overall score and the content area subscores are on different
scales, they cannot be directly compared. The links to the right provide more
information related to understanding your performance in medical content areas. Also provided on the following page is a
detailed listing of exam content, showing the blueprint content description and cognitive task, that you missed in each area.
