3. PT 46 in Detail

The distribution of questions among subjects, organ systems and domains, as well as the answers to the questions, are shown here in more graphic detail, including a comparative presentation of the shared question set with PT 39.

3.1 Which Organ System, Domain and Subject do the Questions belong to?

In the centre are the subjects, showing how many questions from each subject come from which organ system and domain.

There is one representation each, the pre-clinical, the clinical and the cross-sectional subjects.

3.2 Difficulty for Each Subject and Organ System per Semester

The mean difficulties per semester are shown for each subject and organ system as a solid blue line, including the 95% confidence interval as a light blue area around the mean difficulty. It can be seen in which semesters large increases in knowledge occur and what the development is up to the 10th semester.

The solid red line shows the mean value of the subject or organ system over all semesters. 

The grey line shows the average degree of difficulty of the overall examination, so that it can be read which subject, organ system and which domain are rather easy or difficult.

For subjects and organ systems, the mean difficulties per semester (light blue dashed line) and overall (lred dashed line) of the last Progress Tests are shown. 

Subjects with few questions in particular may show considerable deviations.

Average data for the last 10 PTs are not yet available for the domain.
