The Progress Test Medizin (PTM) is one of the few systematic feedback instruments for students of human medicine. It accompanies around 10,000 students from 15 faculties in Germany and Austria through their studies.
Participants are regularly tested on sets of 200 questions at graduate level and are expected to improve their performance as they advance into their degree. In this way, the PTM provides continuous, objective feedback on their personal level of knowledge compared to their own semester and at the same time enables long-term orientation on the scope of knowledge of the training from the beginning of the study programme.
