Student evaluation in obstetrics and gynecology clerkships in the United States and Canada, 1985.

Chairmen of departments of obstetrics and gynecology in the United States and Canada were surveyed to determine how students were evaluated in obstetric-gynecologic clerkships. Internally developed written and oral examinations and subject examinations from the National Board of Medical Examiners were used in more than one-half the departments. Written, oral and practical examinations were considered ideal evaluation methods.
