考试预约 飞出国

选择考试中心

  • 在线报考NAC考试时,你可以按照优先次序选择3个考试中心。
  • 如果你只选择一个考试中心,那么,你被安排到一个具体考试中心的可能性不会更大。
  • MCC会尽力满足你优先选择的考试中心,但是,不能保证肯定能为你安排你选择的考试中心。

确认考试中心

  • MCC工作人员会在二月底之前为所有合格的应试者安排好考试中心,之后,应试者会收到可以在线确认自己的考试中心安排的消息。
  • MCC官网也会公布相关通知。
  • 大约两周之后,所有应试者都会收到相关通知,可以通过个人账号查看考试入场卡包,其中还包括查看并打印考试入场卡包的具体操作。

在线预约考试日期

MCC不能保证你能把考试预约到考试期间的具体某一天。

  • 你必须在MCCQE第一部分考试规定的预约时间内通过个人账户预约个人考试日期。
  • 每个考试中心在计算机实验室大小以及可以提供考试的天数方面都有其局限性。
  • 即使指定的考试中心只开放一天,你也必须在线预约个人考试日期,因为只有这样你才可以获得个人身份编码(PIN)。考试当天你必须使用PIN才可以登陆电脑,并开始考试。
  • 如果在MCCQE第一部分考试规定的预约时间内,你没有预约个人考试日期,MCC工作人员将人工操作为你做相关安排。

预约申请

  • 如果出现了任何重大冲突,例如:还有其他考试,国外旅行限制等等,应试者必须在MCCQE第一部分考试规定的预约时间之前提出必须错过某个具体考试日期的请求。
  • 你不可以变更考试期次。也就是说,当你的考试中心、考试日期以及考试时间都是在春季考试时,如果你打算推迟此次考试到下次秋季考试甚至更靠后的考试,那么,你必须撤销此次报考申请(必须支付一定考试管理费用),然后重新报考该考试。
  • 考试中心以及其所适用的考试日期一经确认,你必须马上告知类似重大冲突,同时递交相关辅助文件并支付提前预约相关费用。

考试中心确定之后变更考试日期

考试中心确定之后,可以申请变更考试中心,但是必须在本期考试允许的范围内,且书面申请必须在2016年3月22日星期二之前递交MCC,此外,所申请的考试中心必须还有考试座位。

变更申请通过之后,你必须支付一定考试中心变更费用。

递交考试变更申请时,你必须了解的一点是,如果MCCQE第一部分考试预约时间已经开始或者已经结束,那么,申请的考试中心可以选择的考试日期很可能非常有限。

预约考试日期之后变更考试日期

在2016年3月22日星期二之前递交书面申请且在所申请日期当天有可用考试座位,只有在这样的情况下,才可以申请变更考试日期。

变更申请通过之后,你必须支付一定考试日期变更费用。

如果考试日期变更申请要求同时变更考试中心,前提是你本人同意变更考试中心,那么,你只需要支付相关考试中心变更费用。

语言质量保证 飞出国###

MCC考试采用英语和法语两种官方语言,但是,无论是英语考试还是法语考试,都会遵循综合性质量保证流程,以确保高质量的考试内容。

考试内容的开发

MCC考试内容由其考试委员会负责开发,该考试委员会成员都是加拿大医生,且都是自己领域内的专家。该考试委员会还代表英语和法语这两种官方语言群。

翻译过程

考试委员会最初命制的考试题采用英语的形式,之后MCC会让精通医学术语翻译的专业翻译人员翻译这些考题。翻译完成之后,将根据要求对其内容进行核查,以确保考试质量:

  1. MCC内部编辑负责对比英语考题和法语翻译。
  2. 考试委员会中讲法语的成员负责另一种对比审查,其中包括大声朗读考试内容。
  3. 来自法国医学院会讲法语的专业医生负责另一轮的对比阅读。在该阶段,每个法语考题由2到3个会讲法语的医生负责审查。

应试者反馈

MCC鼓励参加考试的应试者对可能有歧义或迷惑性的考试内容积极地进行反馈。应试者也可以在每个考题的备注处写上自己的意见。委员会在评分之前会审查应试者对考试内容的质量的反馈和评论。

考题分析

新编内容无论是英语的还是法语的都先会试用然后才会用作考试内容。试用考题不会计入应试者的分数。考试之后,MCC会分析应试者对这些试用考题的反映。如果考题达不到预期的效果,考试委员会会再次审查修订,然后继续试用,直到达到预期效果。

尚未达到预期效果的考题,在评分之前委员会会给这些考题贴上审查的标记。如果确认该考题中存在的错误或缺陷影响了考生考试表现,那么该考题将不计入应试者的考试分数。

考试准备资源 飞出国###

自我管理的资格考试第一部分

MCC提供自我管理资格考试第一部分,这是一种包含96道多项选择题的在线模拟考试,旨在让应试者检验其水平,为MCCQE第一部分考试做准备。虽然SAE-QEI无法涵盖MCCQE第一部分所有考试内容,也不能取代MCCQE第一部分考试,但是,它提供的考题形式和考题风格却很可能在MCCQE第一部分中出现,所以对考试有一定的帮助。此外,所有的SAE-QEI的考试难度相当。应试者完成该考试后马上就会收到反馈的电子邮件,得知自己回答正确的题目以及自己的考试表现与其他应试者的考试表现之间的对比。

**注意:**和MCCQE第一部分考试不同的是,SAE-QEI不包括临床决策部分,目前,只能用于准备MCCQE第一部分的多项选择部分。

考试演示

MCC提供了MCCQE第一部分考试的多项选择题部分和临床决策部分的演示版。

MCCQE第一部分在线演示提供计算机考试操作演示。应试者在真正参加考试之前可以熟悉一下计算机考试环境以及其特点。MCCQE第一部分在线演示共包括MCQ部分28道选择题和CDM6个案例。在线演示将提供正确答案但是不会对用户提交的答案进行评分。演示最后将会出现考题回顾,这些也将在真正考试中出现。

观看MCCQE第一部分MCQ演示

观看MCCQE第一部分CDM演示

**注意:**演示中有效剩余时间在MCCQE第一部分考试中并不适用。考试过程中现场工作人员会告知应试者考试剩余时间。

教学影片

MCC为MCQ部分和CDM部分制作了教学影片,该影片有法语版和英语版两个版本。应试者最好在考试之前观看这些影片,熟悉一下考试界面和操作功能。每一个教学影片时长大约20分钟。考试当天将不会有时间观看这些影片。

资格考试目标

参加MCCQE第一部分考试的应试者可以把资格考试目标作为学习指南。注意:其中涉及的目标主要是有关临床表现!每个临床表现都会有一些学习目标,而这些学习目标是所有参加MCC考试的应试者都必须准确把握的。

应试者在备考时应该系统地学习每一个临床表现,并仔细阅读相关目标。当应试者感觉自己在某个特定的目标方面的知识或技能比较薄弱时,他们就会意识到自己应该强化这一方面的学习,甚至需要参考一些医学参考书/课本。MCC考试委员会成员在命制考试题时所依据的就是该资源中的临床表现和学习目标。

DSM-5过渡

2013年5月美国精神病科协会发布了精神障碍诊断和统计手册的第五个版本(DSM-5)。

从2014年到2015年,以计算机为工具的MCCEE考题将更新使用DSM-5最新语言,这些更新的考题将继续使用DSM-IV-TR语言,不同的一点是,其前面会附上DSM-5术语。

2014年春季的MCCEE考试将是第一次包含更新考题的MCCQE考试。至于MCCQE第一部分考试临床决策填空题,无论应试者使用DSM-5语言还是使用DSM-IV-TR语言,都必须填写正确答案才可以得满分。

参考书目

MCC编纂了一系列参考书目,这些书将有助于应试者准备考试。

应试者说明

应试者最好仔细阅读考试说明:

多项选择题(MCQ)版块

临床决策(CDM)版块

经常提问的问题

应试者最好浏览一下MCCQE第一部分考试经常提问的问题页面。

评分 飞出国###

概述
MCCQE第一部分考试采用单独评分方式,与MCCQE第二部分考试毫无关联。但是,应试者必须同时通过MCCQE第一部分考试和第二部分考试,才会获得LMCC医生执照。

MCCQE第一部分考试和所有MCC考试一样都是标准参照考试。这就意味着只要应试者达到或超过考试标准就能通过考试,而不会受到其他应试者表现的影响。

MCCQE第一部分考试如何计算总分数?如何计算各项分数?
总分会结合多项选择题(MCQ) 和临床决策问题(CDM)进行计算。多项选择题回答正确得一分,回答错误零分。而临床决策问题每个问题最多得一分。对于一些问题例如其选项共包含四个正确选项,应试者可能会得部分分数,0.25分,0.5分,0.75分或者1分。MCCQE第一部分考试总分变化范围从50分到950分。各学科分数只包含多项选择题分数,而CDM分数会包含临床决策问题分数。

如何确定合格分数

加拿大医务委员会每3到5年就会举行一次标准设定练习,以确保考试标准以及合格分数的合理性。标准设定这个流程是用来确定合格的考试表现水平并制定考试合格分数。

为了这个最终目的,加拿大医务委员会咨询了17位来自全国各地、可以代表所有医学院的医生的意见,因为他们不仅各有所长,而且都具有多年监督医学生和住院医师的经验,之后才进行了严格的标准设定练习。书签标定法曾经而且目前仍被世界上许多大型考试项目所运用。标准设定练习之后,中央考试委员会提出实行这种全新的合格分数,该建议接受审查并获得了通过。中央考试委员会的成员是来自全国各地的医生和医学教育者。该委员会每年都会吸收新成员。该委员会负责保证考试质量并为所以应试者评定最终考试结果。

所有2015年春季MCCQE第一部分考试的应试者的考试成绩考虑在内之后,才确立了平均分是500、标准偏差是100的新范围。2015年春季考试以及随后的考试都将根据这个新范围记录考试成绩,这样就可以对参加2015年秋季之后考试的应试者的考试表现进行比较。例如,如果将来的某次考试平均分是510分,那么此次考试应试者的表现比平均分是500分的2015年春季那次考试应试者的表现好。在该新范围下,由常设考试小组建议并获得通过的合格分数是427分,该合格分数将会在将来的MCCQE第一部分考试中一直适用。

2015年之前,MCCQE第一部分考试在原来50分到950分的分数基础上合格分数是390分,而2015年之后,在原来分数基础上合格分数是440分。

如何判断合格还是不合格?

应试者最终考试结果取决于其总分与考试合格分数之间的差异。总分大于等于合格分数,考试结果就是合格;总分小于合格分数,考试结果就是不合格。而应试者的考试表现根据考试合格分数判断,并不是通过其他应试者的表现判断。

考试成绩单和补充性反馈报告都包含什么内容?

SOR包含应试者的最终考试结果、考试总分以及合格分数。其他信息包括各科和CDM各项分数以及比较信息都由SFR提供。有关SFR解读方法见帮助文件!SOR和SFR可以通过physiciansapply.ca account查看。

以下内容来源:StackPath

考试结果 飞出国###

考试结果公布

MCC中央考试委员会确认考试结果之后,应试者会收到一封电子邮件,通知其可以通过physiciansapply.ca个人账户查看自己合格/不合格考试结果。之后,应试者的physiciansapply.ca个人账户很快就会收到一份考试成绩单和一份补充性反馈报告。

为了避免发生任何错误或欺诈行为,同时出于保密性的需要,考试结果将不会通过电话、传真或电子邮件公布。

当应试者申请的组织要求其提供考试成绩单和补充性反馈报告的认证复印件时,应试者可以申请MCC发送认证复印件,但是,必须支付一定的服务费。

考试结果通知方式

MCC通过physiciansapply.ca向应试者发送一份考试成绩单,该声明包含应试者最终考试结果、总分以及合格分数。除此之外,MCC还会通过physiciansapply.ca对应试者的考试表现进行补充性反馈。MCC还会为MCCQE第一部分考试应试者提供一个之前签发的考试成绩单和补充性反馈报告范例。

当应试者申请的机构要求其提供一份考试成绩单或补充性反馈报告的认证复印件,应试者可以向MCC申请发送认证复印件。但是,该服务需要支付一定管理费用。

考试失败

尽管MCC不限制MCCQE第一部分考试应试者参加考试的次数,但是,通过考试的应试者不可以再次报考以期刷新考试成绩。

请求重新评分

只有没有通过MCCQE第一部分考试的应试者才可以请求重新评分;凡是通过该考试的应试者都不可以申请重新评分。准备参加春季考试的应试者必须在9月1日之前递交重新评分请求;准备参加秋季考试的应试者必须在3月1日之前递交重新评分请求。应试者必须递交书面请求,并使用信用卡支付一定的费用。

应试者有两种重新评分选择:

  1. 由MCC重新评分
  2. 在MCC办公处应试者在场时进行重新评分Rescoring with the candidate present at the MCC’s office

考试结束之后,最终考试结果至少经过3次核查才会发送给应试者。边缘分数,即靠近及格分数线的分数,接受的核查次数更多。鉴于MCC会额外审查边缘分数,所以重新评分之后也不可能改变最后的考试分数,只可能产生三种结果:考试分数不变;考试分数有所改变但是考试结果仍然不合格;考试分数有所改变,考试结果由不合格变成合格。重新评分之后,无论是考试分数发生了改变还是考试结果发生了改变,MCC都会通过应试者physiciansapply.ca个人账户重新签发考试结果声明和补充性反馈报告。

投诉

当MCCQE第一部分考试的应试者被取消考试资格,包括以任何形式被拒绝报考将来的考试,或者认为考试结果有失公允时,可以向投诉委员会提出投诉。应试者不可以对考试内容提出任何投诉。

如果你打算提出投诉,必须在收到评估考试合作委员会决定之后45天之内书面通知执行董事。

Scheduling

Selecting a centre

  • During the online application process, you must select up to three examination centres, in order of preference
  • The likelihood of being assigned to a particular centre does not improve if you choose only one centre
  • The Medical Council of Canada (MCC) makes every effort to provide you with a space at one of your requested centres; however, it cannot guarantee your assignment to one of these centres

Confirmation of centre assignment

  • Once MCC staff has assigned centres for all accepted candidates, by the end of February, candidates will be sent a communication to confirm their centre assignment information online
  • A notice will also be posted on the MCC website
  • Approximately two weeks following the designated scheduling period, a message will be sent to all candidates informing them that their Entrance card package is now available through their account; instructions on how to view and print the entrance card package will also be provided in this message

Scheduling the examination date online

The MCC cannot guarantee that you will be able to schedule your examination on a specific day within the examination period.

  • You will be required to schedule your examination date through your account during the designated MCCQE Part I scheduling period
  • Each centre has restrictions based on the size of its computer lab and the number of days it can provide the examination
  • Even if your assigned centre is only running for one day, you must schedule your examination date online in order to obtain your Personal Identification Number (PIN), which is required to log onto the computer on examination day
  • If you do not schedule your examination date during the designated MCCQE Part I Scheduling period, an MCC staff member will manually assign you to one of the remaining available days at your assigned centre

Request for scheduling

  • In the event of a significant conflict (for example, another examination, overseas travel restrictions, etc.), a candidate may request consideration, in advance of the designated MCCQE Part I scheduling period, to not be scheduled on a specific day
  • You cannot ‘change’ examination sessions. If you are assigned a centre, date and time to take the examination in the spring session, and wish to delay taking the examination until the following fall session or beyond, you will need to withdraw your application (the withdrawal administration fee will apply), and reapply when you wish to take the examination
  • Notice of such a conflict, with supporting documentation and payment of the pre-scheduling fee, should be submitted once confirmation of centre assignment is obtained and the dates available at each of the centres are known

Examination date changes after centre assignmet

Deadlines, fees, procedure for centre change requests:

After you have been assigned to a centre, a request for a centre change (within the session you applied for) will be considered, provided that a written request is submitted to the MCC by Tuesday, March 22, 2016 and space is available at the requested centre
A centre change fee will apply if the requested change can be accommodated
When submitting a centre change request, you should keep in mind that if the MCCQE Part I scheduling period has already begun or has ended, the dates available at the requested centre will likely be very limited

Examination date changes after the date has been scheduled

Deadlines, fees, procedure for date change requests:

A request for a date change will be considered provided that a written request is submitted to the MCC no later than Tuesday, March 22, 2016 and space is available on the requested date
A date change fee will apply if the requested change can be accommodated
If a centre change is required to accommodate the requested date change (and only if you approve this change), only the centre change fee will apply

  • To view the dates that your assigned centre will be running, see Dates available for centres.
  • Although the published examination dates are Oct. 26 to 30 (week 1) and Nov. 2 to 5 (week 2), not all centres will run the entire period and some centres may run for only one or two days.
  • Once assigned to an examination centre, you are guaranteed a space at that centre; however, you must select the day you will take the examination from the days available at your assigned centre during the designated Part I Scheduling period (see below for more information).

Part I Scheduling Instructions

Please note: MCCQE Part I date scheduling cannot be done with a mobile device or tablet. Scheduling will only be successful if done through a computer.

Accepted candidates must schedule their examination date (from the dates available at their assigned centre) through their physiciansapply.ca account, during the Part I Scheduling period as indicated above.

To view and make note of the scheduling start dates and times for your assigned centre, see Date scheduling start times (all start times are Eastern Time).

Once the scheduling period begins for your assigned centre, scheduling is done on a first-come, first-served basis.

Candidates should be prepared to take the examination on any of the days their assigned centre is running.

Because the MCCQE Part I is a computer-based examination, a limited number of spaces are available each day (daily capacities vary by centre).

To schedule your examination date:

  • Log into your physiciansapply.ca account.
  • Click on Examinations on the left panel.
  • Click on MCCQE Part I fall 2015 in the centre panel to open the Current Examination panel.
  • Click on Schedule Now to open the Schedule An Examination panel.
  • Click on the button next to your preferred date.
  • Click on Schedule Date at the bottom right of the page to register this date.
    • After you click on Schedule Date, you will not be able to change this date.

Language quality assurance

The Medical Council of Canada (MCC) produces examination content in both official languages (English/French). It follows a comprehensive quality assurance process to ensure that examination content, whether in English or French, is of the highest quality.

Content development

MCC examination content is developed by the MCC’s test committees, made up of physicians from across Canada who are experts in their fields. The test committees include representation from both official language groups (English and French).

Translation process

Examination questions are initially created in English by the test committees. The MCC then sends the questions to professional translators who have medical terminology translation expertise. Once the translation is complete, the following quality assurance steps are taken and content revisions made as required:

  1. MCC in-house editors perform multiple comparative reads (comparing English questions to French translations).
  2. A Francophone test committee member performs another set of comparative reviews, which includes reading the content out loud.
  3. Francophone specialist physicians from French faculties of medicine participate in another round of comparative readings. Each French examination question is reviewed by two to three Francophone physicians during these sessions.

Candidate input

The MCC encourages candidates taking the examination to report any content that may be ambiguous or confusing. Candidates can also make comments in the “notes” section attached to each exam question. All candidate reports and comments about the quality of the content are reviewed by the committee prior to scoring the examination.

Question analysis

New content, whether in English or in French, is piloted before it is used as active content on the examination. Pilot questions do not count toward the candidate’s score. The MCC analyzes candidates’ response patterns after the examination. Any question that does not perform as expected is returned to the committee for review and revision, and is later re-piloted.

Should an active question not meet expected performance requirements, it is also flagged for review by the committee prior to scoring the examination. If it is determined that an error or flaw in the question could have affected performance, it will not count toward the candidates’ score.

Self-Administered Qualifying Examination Part I

The Medical Council of Canada (MCC) offers the Self Administered Qualifying Examination Part I (SAE – QEI), an online, 96 multiple-choice question practice examination intended for individuals wishing to test their level of preparedness for the Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination Part I (MCCQE Part I). Multiple forms are available at any given time. The Self Administered Qualifying Examination Part I does not cover all material in the MCCQE Part I and is not meant to take the place of the MCCQE Part I. However, it does provide a sample of the type and style of questions that may be found in the MCCQE Part I and can serve as a study aid. All Self Administered Qualifying Examinations for Part I (QEI 1, QEI 2, QEI 3) are all at the same level of difficulty (e.g., QEI 3 is not more difficult than QEI 1 or QEI 2). Following completion, feedback is immediately e-mailed to participants on the number of correctly answered questions as well as a comparison of their performance to those of other MCCQE Part I participants.

Please note that unlike the MCCQE Part I examination, the SAE – QEI does not contain a clinical decision-making component. At present, the SAE – QEI can only be used to prepare for the multiple-choice component of the MCCQE Part I.

Examination demo

The MCC is pleased to offer demonstration versions of the multiple-choice question (MCQ) component and the clinical decision-making (CDM) component of the MCCQE Part I.

The MCCQE Part I Online Demo provides a demonstration of how the computer-based examination operates. Candidates will be able to familiarize themselves with the computer-testing environment and learn about each feature before using it in the actual examination. The MCCQE Part I Online Demo includes 28 questions in the MCQ section and six cases in the CDM. The correct answers are provided and answers that the user submits will not be scored. The last screen of the demo shows the Item Reviewing feature that replicates what will be seen on the actual examination.

View the MCCQE Part I MCQ demo.

View the MCCQE Part I CDM demo.

*Please note that the time remaining functionality within the demo is no longer available in the actual MCCQE Part I. The site staff will inform candidates of the time remaining throughout the examination.

Instructional video

The MCC has created instructional videos for both the MCQ component and the CDM component. They are offered in French and English. Candidates are strongly encouraged to view these videos prior to the examination to become familiar with the examination interface and functionality. Each instructional video clip lasts approximately 20 minutes. There will be no time available to view these videos on examination day.

Objectives for the Qualifying Examination

Using the Objectives for the Qualifying Examination as a study guide may be helpful for candidates taking the MCCQE Part I. Note that the Objectives are organized in terms of clinical presentations. Under each clinical presentation is a set of learning objectives that are exactly what candidates have to know for any of the MCC examinations.

When studying for an examination, candidates should systematically go through each clinical presentation and carefully read the related objectives. If candidates feel that their knowledge or skills related to a given objective is weak, then they know that this objective needs further study and will require them to consult a medical reference/textbook. The MCC test committee members use the clinical presentations and learning objectives listed in this resource when creating test questions.

Transition to DSM-5

In May 2013 the American Psychiatric Association published the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5).

Over 2014 and 2015, the MCCEE computer-based questions will be updated to include the new DSM-5 language. These updated questions will still include the DSM-IV-TR language, which will be featured in brackets after the DSM-5 terminology.

The first MCCQE Part I administration to include updated questions will be the spring 2014 session. For answers to MCCQE Part I clinical decision-making write-in questions, candidates will continue to receive full marks for correct answers regardless of whether they use DSM-5 or DSM-IV-TR language.

For more information, please visit Medical Council of Canada transition to DSM-5.

Reference books

The MCC has compiled a list of reference books that may be helpful in preparing for the examination.

Candidate instructions

Candidates are encouraged to review the instructions for the examination:

Multiple-choice questions (MCQ) component

Clinical decision making (CDM) component

Frequently asked questions

Candidates are encouraged to review the MCCQE Part I frequently asked questions page.

Scoring

Overview

The Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination (MCCQE) Part I is scored independently of the MCCQE Part II. To be awarded the Licentiate of the Medical Council of Canada (LMCC), a candidate must pass both the MCCQE Part I and Part II.

The MCCQE Part I, like all Medical Council of Canada (MCC) exams is a criterion-referenced exam. This means that candidates who meet or exceed the standard will pass the exam regardless of how well other candidates perform on it.

How are total scores and sub-scores calculated on the MCCQE Part I?

The total score is calculated by combining multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and clinical decision-making questions (CDMs). MCQs are scored 1 point for a correct answer and scored 0 for an incorrect answer. For CDMs, there is a maximum of 1 point per question. Some questions, such as a question whose answer includes four correct elements, allow candidates to receive partial marks (e.g., 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 or 1). The MCCQE Part I total score is reported on a scale that ranges from 50 to 950. Discipline sub-scores include scores from MCQs only and the CDM sub-score includes scores from CDMs.

How is the pass score established?

The Medical Council of Canada (MCC) conducts a standard setting exercise every three to five years to ensure that the standard and the pass score remain appropriate. Standard setting is a process used to define an acceptable level of performance and to establish a pass score.

To this end, the MCC completed a rigorous standard setting exercise based on expert judgments from a panel of 17 physicians across the country that represented faculties of medicine, different specialties, and years of experience supervising students and residents. The Bookmark Method was used and has been successfully employed (and defended) with a number of large-scale exam programs around the world. Following the standard setting exercise, the new pass score was brought forward to the Central Examination Committee (CEC), which reviewed and approved the recommendation. The CEC is represented by physicians and medical educators from across the country. The members of this Committee are appointed by our Council annually. The CEC is responsible for the quality of our examinations and awards final results to our candidates (e.g., pass, fail).

Using the spring 2015 results of all MCCQE Part I candidates, the new scale was established to have a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100. Candidates results from the spring 2015 and subsequent exam sessions will be reported on this new scale allowing us to compare candidate performance across sessions beginning with the spring 2015 session. For example, a mean score of 510 on a future session would indicate a stronger performance of that group than the spring 2015 group that had a mean of 500. On this new scale, the pass score that was recommended from the standing setting panel and approved by the CEC is 427. This pass score will remain in place for subsequent MCCQE Part I sessions.

Prior to 2015, the pass score for the MCCQE Part I was 390 on the old 50 to 950 scale. The new pass score (427) translates to 440 on this old scale.

How is a pass/fail decision made?

A candidate’s final result (e.g., pass, fail) is determined by his or her total score and where it falls in relation to the examination pass score. A total score equal to or greater than the pass score is a pass and a total score less than the pass score is a fail. The candidate’s performance is judged in relation to the examination pass score and not judged on how well other individuals perform.

What will appear on the Statement of Results and Supplemental Feedback Report?

The SOR includes the candidate’s final result and total score, as well as the pass score. Additional information about discipline and CDM sub-scores and comparative information is provided on the SFR. See the help file for additional information on how to interpret the SFR. Both the SOR and the SFR are made available through the candidate’s physiciansapply.ca account.

Results

Release of results

Examination results are confirmed by the MCC Central Examination Committee, which meets in June for the spring administration and in December for the fall administration. After result confirmation, candidates will receive an email notification stating that they can verify their pass/fail result through their physiciansapply.ca account. The Statement of Results and the supplemental feedback report will be posted in candidates’ physiciansapply.ca accounts shortly thereafter.

To prevent errors or fraud and for reasons of confidentiality, results cannot be given over the phone, by fax or by email.

Candidates applying to an organization that requires submission of certified copies of the Statement of Results or the supplemental feedback report can request that the MCC send certified copies. There is an administrative fee for this service.

How results are communicated

The Medical Council of Canada (MCC) issues candidates a Statement of Results through their physiciansapply.ca account. The Statement of Results includes the candidate’s final result and total score as well as the score that was required to pass the examination. The MCC also provides supplemental feedback on candidates’ examination performance through their physiciansapply.ca account. The MCC provides an example of a previously issued Statement of Results and the supplemental feedback report for the Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination Part I (MCCQE Part I).

Fails

The MCC does not limit the number of times a candidate may attempt the MCCQE Part I. However, candidates who have been awarded a pass result on the MCCQE Part I cannot retake the examination in an attempt to obtain a higher score.

Rescore requests

Only candidates who have failed the MCCQE Part I can request a rescoring of their examination; candidates with a pass result are not eligible for the rescoring service. Rescore requests must be submitted by Sept. 1 for the spring exam, or by March 1 for the fall exam. Requests will be accepted upon receipt of a written request and a credit card payment of the applicable fee.

Candidates can choose between two rescoring options:

  1. Rescoring by the MCC
  2. Rescoring with the candidate present at the MCC’s office

After the examination, all final results are verified at least three times before being sent to the candidates. Borderline results (i.e., those within a close range of the passing score) undergo increased review. Given the additional scrutiny that the MCC gives to borderline results, it is unlikely that rescoring the examination will produce a change in result. Three potential outcomes can occur as a result of the rescoring of the examination: no change in score, change in score but no change in the fail result, or change in score and change in fail to pass result. If the rescoring produces a change in score or a change in score and final result, the MCC will issue a new Statement of Results and supplemental feedback report to the candidate through his or her physiciansapply.ca account.

Appeals

Any MCCQE Part I candidate who has been denied standing, including any denial of entry to future examinations, or who considers that the results of an examination have been prejudiced by the conduct of the examination may appeal to the Appeals Committee. Candidates cannot seek to appeal the content of the examination.

Any candidate wishing to launch an appeal must notify the Executive Director in writing within 45 days of the decision of the Central Examination Committee. For more information on the appeal process for the MCCQE Part I, please review the MCC bylaws.

MCCQE考试第二部分

MCCQE第二部分考试主要对应试者的能力进行评估,具体说来就是具备相关的知识、技能和态度,这些对于获得加拿大医生执照尤为重要,只有具备这些知识、技能和态度应试者才可以进入独立临床实践。

该考试设有一系列临床检查点,其中包括不计入应试者总分的试验检查点。每个检查点都会有一个简要书面说明介绍一个临床难题,然后应试者根据说明对标准化病人进行检查等一系列活动,例如采集病史、进行身体检查、评估并解决病人疾病。应试者可能会被要求回答一些关于病人的一些问题,解读X射线或其他检查结果,诊断疾病和/或写住院要求。

考试中出现的临床难题涉及内科、小儿科、妇产科、预防医学与社区健康、精神科与外科以及与全科医学和卫生保健息息相关的其他相似学科。

自2016年起家庭医学开始采用此全新考试结构,因此MCCQE第二部分考试报名人数显著增加。2015年秋季MCCQE第二部分考试限制了报考名额。有些考生原本打算报考2015年秋季考试,但是当时报考名额已满,,这些考生可以选择登记预先注册2016年春季MCCQE第二部分考试。

在预先注册名单的应试者将可以在2015年11月份预先注册期间报考该考试。普通注册会在预先注册关闭之后开放,将适用于所有已完成培训或者在PGY-2年及以上的医生。MCC希望能够通过预先注册和普通注册为所有符合条件的PGY-2+应试者(包括已完成培训的医生)提供足够的报考名额。

自今年起实行 - MCC变动了MCCQE第二部分考试合格标准。PGY-1应试者如果在2016年6月30日之前能够完成第一年的住院医生实习期,就可以报考2016年春季MCCQE第二部分考试。针对PGY-1应试者的注册时间将于2016年1月开放,报名人数将会非常有限。

申请2016年秋季MCCQE第二部分考试

针对2016年春季MCCQE第二部分考试MCC会提供三个考试报名时间段:

  • 预先注册阶段 - 2015年11月16日起开放一周。

    • 该注册阶段只适用于在预先注册名单的应试者。
    • 这些应试者原本打算报考2015年秋季考试,但是由于当时报考名额已满,没有完成报名流程,于是选择登记预先注册。
  • 普通考试报名将于2015年11月23日起开放一周。

  • PGY-1 注册 – 据估计将于2016年1月4日起开放一周。

  • 有关考试中心安排,请访问考试中心页面。

  • MCCQE第二部分考试不采用双语的形式,每个考试中心采用英语或法语一种形式。

  • 应试者将会被安排在考试周的某两天参加两场考试。

考试人数 飞出国###

将如何限制报名人数?

注意: 目前MCCQE第二部分考试报名渠道已经关闭。据估计2016年春季MCCQE第二部分考试报名将于2015年11月开放。

MCC必须确保每次考试中都有大量第一次参加考试的加拿大毕业生,以保证考试分数的可靠性、有效性和可比性。

只有每次考试中有大量第一次参加考试的加拿大毕业生,才能保证应试者不会由于OSCE检查点难度太大或太小而处于劣势或优势,这样不仅可以确定考试难度,而且也可以调整考试分数。

其他应试者同样受报考名额限制。这样就可以确保应试者的多样性,监考医生也可以根据普遍的标准作出更好的评估。

MCC在2015年秋季MCCQE第二部分考试中保留了一定的考试座位,专门针对将通过2015年春季第一部分考试或者将不能通过2015年春季MCCQE第二部分考试的应试者。

第一次参加考试的加拿大毕业生;重复参加考试的国际医学毕业生、美国毕业生和加拿大毕业生;收到春季考试成绩单的应试者,这三个群体进一步划分为英语考试和法语考试,因为考试中心有语言区别。名额限制根据以往应试者的数量按比例划分。同时还会考虑以往退考者比例,安排考试地点。

报名人数满额之后呢?

打算报考的应试者在相应应试者群体报考人数尚未满额之前可以进行考试注册。由于不同应试者群体报考名额限制不同,某个群体报考人数满额并不影响其他尚未满额的群体继续进行考试报名。

某个应试者群体报考人数一旦满额,该群体应试者在考试报名过程中会被通知报考名额已满,是否希望预先注册下次考试。

在2015年秋季考试普通注册开放之前,预先注册名单中的应试者将可以选择注册2016年春季MCCQE第二部分考试。2016年春季预先注册只适用于在2015年秋季考试注册期间已经开始报考流程但是由于相应群体报考名额已满无法递交报名申请的应试者。

为什么2015年秋季MCCQE第二部分考试采用了报考名额限制?

最近5年,MCCQE第二部分考试报考人数急剧上升。因为每年的春季考试和秋季考试应试者人数分布几乎差不多,所以考试地点可以容纳这些增加的应试者。目前,随着自2016年起家庭医学将采用全新考试结构的公布,MCC预计2015年秋季MCCQE第二部分考试应试者将会非常多。

为了解决这个问题,MCC反复考虑了7种不同的解决办法,最终决定实行各个应试者群体报考名额限制。这样MCC不仅能够保持考试分数严格有效,而且还可以保证春秋季考试都可以有尽可能多的考试中心。

考试人数会增加吗?

MCC已经在2015年秋季考试中增加了考试人数,比2014年秋季考试人数多7%。2016年秋季考试人数将进一步增加。由于没有其他类似考试,所以考试人数将会继续增加。而类似考试中的考点将会转变成MCCQE第二部分考试。

应试者会进入候补名单吗?

为了保证考试的公平性,MCC决定在所有应试者群体中将以往退考率计入考试地点,而不实行候补名单。

因为实行候补名单可能会影响考试的公平性。例如,注册时间关闭之后如果有应试者退出了考试,候补名单上不同群体应试者可以有机会参加考试。但是候补名单之外的应试者将不会被考虑在内,因为每次考试还必须保证一定数量的第一次参加考试的加拿大毕业生。

报考名额限制会影响应试者选择考试中心吗?

报考名额限制不影响应试者选择考试中心。具体群体,例如第一次参见考试的英语考区加拿大毕业生,报考人数满额之后,该群体中的其他应试者将被通知该报考名额已满。特殊3个群体各有名额限制,并根据语言不同进行了进一步的划分,但是不会收到应试者考试中心选择的影响。

Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination Part II

The Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination Part II assesses the competence of candidates, specifically the knowledge, skills, and attitudes essential for medical licensure in Canada prior to entry into independent clinical practice.

This examination consists of a series of clinical stations including pilot stations that do not count towards a candidate’s total score. At each station, a brief written statement introduces a clinical problem and directs the candidate to appropriately examine a standardized (simulated) patient as well as perform activities such as obtaining a focused history, conducting a focused physical examination, or assessing and addressing the patient’s issues. Candidates may be asked to answer specific questions related to the patient, interpret X-rays or the results of other investigations, make a diagnosis and/or write admission orders.

This examination includes problems in Medicine, Pediatrics, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Preventive Medicine and Community Health, Psychiatry and Surgery, as well as in similar disciplines considered essential for competence in general medicine and health care.

As a result of the new exam structure for family medicine starting in 2016, MCC is seeing increased candidate demand for the MCCQE Part II across sessions. Capacity limits were in place for the fall 2015 MCCQE Part II. Candidates who attempted to apply for the fall 2015 MCCQE Part II after capacity limits had been reached were able to select to be added to a preregistration list for the spring 2016 MCCQE Part II.

Candidates on the pre-registration list will be able to apply during the pre-registration period in November 2015. General registration, which will open after the pre-registration period has closed, will be available to all physicians who have completed their training or who are in their PGY-2 year or above. MCC expects to have enough capacity during the pre-registration and general registration periods for all eligible PGY-2+ candidates (including physicians who have completed their training).

New this year – the MCC has changed the eligibility criteria for the MCCQE Part II . PGY-1 candidates completing their first year of residency by June 30, 2016, will be able to apply to the spring 2016 MCCQE Part II. The registration period for PGY-1 candidates will open in January 2016, and capacity will be very limited.

Application for the spring 2016 MCCQE Part II

MCC will provide three application periods for the spring 2016 MCCQE Part II:

  • The pre-registration period – opening the week of Nov. 16, 2015

    • This registration period is available only for those candidates who are on the pre-registration list
    • These candidates attempted to apply for fall 2015 after the exam capacity was reached and could not complete the application process at that time, and selected to place their name on the pre-registration list
  • General application will open during the week of Nov. 23, 2015

  • PGY-1 registration – expected to open the week of Jan. 4, 2016

  • For information regarding centre assignment, please visit the Centre selection page

  • The MCCQE Part II centres are not bilingual; each centre is designated as either English (E) or French (F)

  • Candidates will be scheduled for two short sessions over the two days of the weekend

Proposed future MCCQE Part II dates

Session - Exam dates - Expected application opening timeframe

Spring 2016 - April 30 and May 1 (confirmed)- November 2015 and January 2016

Fall 2016- Oct. 29 and 30 (proposed) May 2016

Notice for spring 2016 MCCQE Part II – General registration

To receive a notice when general registration opens for the spring 2016 MCCQE Part II, please submit your email address below. The MCC will send this notification to your email address and not through your physiciansapply.ca account. The MCC cannot guarantee that the email notification will reach your inbox.

Exam capacity

How will the capacity limits be applied?

Note: Application to the MCCQE Part II is now closed. We anticipate that application to the spring 2016 MCCQE Part II exam will open in November 2015.

The MCC must ensure that a large enough sample of first-time Canadian graduate candidates take the exam in each session to maintain the reliability, validity and comparability of scores.

Having a large enough sample of first-time Canadian graduate candidates in each session ensures that candidates taking the exam in a given session are not penalized or advantaged if they receive more difficult or easier OSCE stations. The level of difficulty can be determined and exam scores adjusted.

Capacity limits are also in place for other candidates. This will ensure that the exam is taken by a diverse group of candidates across both sessions, thus enabling physician examiners to better assess against a common standard.

MCC reserved a proportional number of spots in the fall 2015 MCCQE Part II session for eligible candidates who will pass the spring 2015 MCCQE Part I or fail the spring 2015 MCCQE Part II.

The caps for these three groups (first-time Canadian graduates; IMGs, US graduates and Canadian graduate repeat test takers; and candidates receiving results from the spring exams) have been further subdivided by English and French exam spots, as exam centres are language-specific. The caps have been proportionally set based on historical candidate volumes. Historical withdrawal rates were also taken into account and added to the number of spots available.

What happens after a capacity limit is reached?

Candidates who apply will be able to register until the cap for their group has been reached. Depending on the rate of application, candidates in certain groups will be able to continue to apply for the exam after capacity has been reached for other groups.

Once the limit has been reached for a specific group, candidates from that group going through the application process will be notified that spots are no longer available, and will be asked whether they want to be added to a pre-registration list for the following session.

Candidates on the pre-registration list will be provided the option of registering for the spring 2016 MCCQE Part II before general registration opens in fall 2015. The option of being added to the spring 2016 pre-registration list will only be available during the fall 2015 exam’s registration period to candidates who started the application process and could not submit an application because the limit had been reached for their group.

Why are capacity limits being introduced for the fall 2015 MCCQE Part II?

Over the past five years, there has been a significant increase in the number of candidates taking the MCCQE Part II. Exam sites have been able to accommodate the increased candidate numbers because they were more or less evenly distributed over the spring and fall session every year. Now, with the announcement of a new exam structure for family medicine starting in 2016, MCC is expecting that candidate demand for the fall 2015 MCCQE Part II will be very high.

After exploring several options to address this issue, the MCC will implement specific capacity limits – or caps – across candidate groups. This approach will allow the MCC to maintain the rigour and psychometric validity of exam scores while also ensuring that the exam will be offered in as many centres as possible across both the spring and fall sessions.

Can the exam capacity be increased?

The MCC has already added capacity to the fall 2015 exam (more than seven per cent increase over fall 2014 candidate volumes). We will also add more candidate spots in the fall of 2016. Additional capacity will be available given that the harmonized examination will not be offered. The “spots” from the harmonized exam will be transferred to the MCCQE Part II.

Can candidates be added to a wait list?

To be equitable, the MCC decided to add historical withdrawal rates to the number of spots available across all candidate groups instead of implementing a waiting list.

Implementing a waiting list might negatively impact fairness for candidates. For example, if we had someone withdraw after the registration closed, we would have candidates from the different groups on the waiting list. We would not necessarily be able to offer the spot to the person “next on the list”, given that we also have to ensure that a minimum number of first-time Canadian graduates take the exam across both sessions.

Are the limits impacted by the candidate’s centre choices?

The capacity limits are independent of the candidate’s centre choices. Once capacity has been reached for a given group (e.g., for English first-time Canadian graduates), any additional candidate from that group will be notified that this limit has been reached. Separate limits have been established for the three groups and then further sub-divided by language, but they are not impacted by the candidate’s centre choices.

Objectives for the Qualifying Examination

The Medical Council of Canada uses the Objectives for the Qualifying Examination as the basis for the MCCQE Part I and II. The Objectives have been defined in behavioural terms, and reflect our expectations of competent physicians.

The assumption has been made that it is better to prevent than treat, and that rational treatment is possible only after a diagnosis has been established. The Objectives deal with data gathering, diagnostic clinical problem solving, and the principles of management, which are applicable, in part of or whole, to clinical situations faced by physicians.

The MCCQE Part II is based on common or critical patient presentations related to the Objectives. Consider organizing your study similarly, rather than studying by disease or body system. Working from common or critical presenting problems from different disciplines, by yourself or with others, will align your studying with the format of the examination. For each patient presentation, identify key diagnoses, the critical information needed for diagnosis (and to rule out the differential diagnoses) and to treat, list key aspects of the physical examination, and consider what investigations might be needed, as well as summarizing key aspects of initial management of each problem.

Transition to DSM-5

In May 2013 the American Psychiatric Association published the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5).

Over 2014 and 2015, the MCCEE computer-based questions will be updated to include the new DSM-5 language. These updated questions will still include the DSM-IV-TR language, which will be featured in brackets after the DSM-5 terminology.

Candidates answering questions asked by the physician examiner, or providing written answers on the post-encounter probe, can use either DSM-5 or DSM-IV-TR language where appropriate.

For more information, please visit Medical Council of Canada transition to DSM-5.

评分 飞出国###

概述

MCCQE第二部分考试采用单独评分方式,与MCCQE第一部分考试毫无关联。但是,应试者必须同时通过MCCQE第一部分考试和第二部分考试,才会获得LMCC证书。

MCCQE第二部分考试和所有MCC考试一样都是标准参照考试。这就意味着只要应试者达到或超过考试标准就能通过考试,而不会受到其他应试者表现的影响。

MCCQE第二部分考试部分由监考医生根据应试者在每个考试点的表现进行评估。

** OSCE评分方式**

OSCE各个检查点都比较客观,因为它们都采用了标准的指导方针,监考医生和标准化病人都经过严格培训,而且每个检查点都使用针对性的评分工具。

OSCE检查点由监考医生根据一张评分表进行打分。此外,在几乎所有的检查点,监考医生也会根据等级量表对应试者与病人之间的互动进行评分。例如,监考医生可能会根据提问技巧和/或身体检查组织能力和/或与他人相处对应试者进行等级划分。

当应试者在某些检查点必须对书面问题作答时,其在分钟的互动后测试的作答也将参与评分。监考医生在考试结束之后再对应试者的作答进行评分。

应试者应该表现得体、专业、不违背道德规范。监考医生填写监考医生评分表之后,必须回答应试者的考试表现是否合格,如果不合格,必须明确指出哪些考试表现不合格。此外,监考医生还必须回答:该应试者是否有任何违背专业道德的行为。如果回答是,监考医生还必须详细指出其具体行为。

MCCQE第二部分考试如何计算总分数?如何计算各项分数?

所有考试点的评分标准都是一样的,而应试者的总分数是其所有考试点分数的平均分。该分数反映了应试者在特定考试时间在所有考试点所经历的考试难度。MCC评分报告都采用50到950分的标准评分形式。

各项分数计算方式是把12个检查点的每项都折合成百分比,最后取所有百分比的平均数。MCCQE第二部分考试总共包含4项得分,即:数据采集、问题解决与决策、病人/医生交流以及医学实践领域内有关文化交流、法律、道德和组织方面的考虑。

如何确定合格分数?

加拿大医务委员会每3到5年就会举行一次标准设定练习,以确保考试标准以及合格分数的合理性。标准设定这个流程是用来确定合格的考试表现水平并制定考试合格分数。

为了这个最终目的,加拿大医务委员会咨询了20位来自全国各地、可以代表所有医学院的医生的意见,因为他们不仅各有所长,而且都具有多年监督医学生和住院医师的经验,之后才进行了严格的标准设定练习。MCC所使用的Borderline Group Method一直被世界上许多大型考试项目所运用。标准设定练习之后,中央考试委员会提出了实行这种全新的合格分数,该建议接受审查并获得了通过。中央考试委员会的成员是来自全国各地的医生和医学教育者,且嗾使考试委员会成员,由MCC负责选拔。该委员会负责保证考试质量并为所以应试者评定最终考试结果。

所有2015年春季MCCQE第一部分考试的应试者的考试成绩考虑在内之后,才确立了平均分是500、标准偏差是100的新范围。2015年春季考试以及随后的考试都将根据这个新范围记录考试成绩,这样就可以对参加2015年秋季之后考试的应试者的考试表现进行比较。例如,如果将来的某次考试平均分是510分,那么此次考试应试者的表现比平均分是500分的2015年春季那次考试应试者的表现好。在该新范围下,由常设考试小组建议并获得通过的合格分数是509分,该合格分数将会在将来的MCCQE第二部分考试中一直适用。

2015年之前,MCCQE第二部分考试在原来50分到950分的分数基础上合格分数是475分,而2015年之后,在原来分数基础上合格分数将由原来的509分降到494分。

如何判断合格还是不合格?

应试者最终考试结果取决于其总分与考试合格分数之间的差异。总分大于等于合格分数,考试结果就是合格;总分小于合格分数,考试结果就是不合格。而应试者的考试表现根据考试合格分数判断,并不是通过其他应试者的表现判断。

考试成绩单和补充性反馈报告都包含什么内容?

SOR包含应试者的最终考试结果、考试总分以及合格分数。其他信息包括总分和各项分数都由SFR提供。总分采用50到950分的标准分数范围。SFR中第一项中的分数显示的是应试者各项分数,表明其在4个方面的优势和劣势。所以,总分数和SFR中的分数无法进行比较,因为它们采用不同的评分范围。SOR和SFR可以通过physiciansapply.ca account查看。

自2015年起关于补充性反馈报告的变化

之前的补充性反馈报告包含一个图表,该图表依据考试表现好坏依次列出各个检查点。自2015年起,MCC将该图表从补充性反馈报告中删除,因为图表包含的信息尽管正确但容易解读错误和/或容易误导人。

该图表将各个检查点划分了等级,但是,实际上应试者在各个检查点的表现在某些情况下是相同(接近相同)或者没有差异的。 出现这样的变动之后,2015年的补充性反馈报告将由2页内容变成1页内容。

考试结果公布

考试结果由MCC中央考试委员会负责确认,因为它负责管理每年6月份春季考试和12月份秋季考试。

MCC中央考试委员会确认考试结果之后,应试者会收到一封电子邮件,通知其可以通过physiciansapply.ca个人账户查看自己合格/不合格考试结果。之后,应试者的physiciansapply.ca个人账户很快就会收到一份考试成绩单和一份补充性反馈报告。考试合格的应试者还会收到MCC寄送的证书。

当应试者申请的组织要求其提供考试成绩单和补充性反馈报告的认证复印件时,应试者可以申请MCC发送认证复印件,但是,必须支付一定的服务费。

为了避免发生任何错误或欺诈行为,同时出于保密性的需要,考试结果将不会通过电话、传真或电子邮件公布。

考试结果通知方式

MCC通过physiciansapply.ca向应试者发送一份考试成绩单,该声明包含应试者最终考试结果、总分以及合格分数。除此之外,MCC还会通过physiciansapply.ca对应试者的考试表现进行补充性反馈。MCC还准备了辅助文件帮助应试者解读自己在MCCQE第二部分考试中的补充性反馈报告。

证书

为了能确保收到考试证书,应试者应该保证MCC记录的是最新的邮寄地址。如果邮寄地址出现变动,应试者应该在MCC邮寄证书之前2周通知其变更的邮寄地址。如果应试者没有及时通知MCC,那么必须等到原件返回MCC后,由MCC寄送到新地址。应试者应该通过physiciansapply.ca个人账户更新个人邮寄地址。

考试失败

尽管MCC不限制MCCQE第二部分考试应试者参加考试的次数,但是,通过考试的应试者不可以再次报考以期刷新考试成绩。

请求重新评分

只有没有通过MCCQE第二部分考试的应试者才可以请求重新评分;凡是通过该考试的应试者都不可以申请重新评分。

应试者必须了解在考试结果公布之前考试分数会反复核查,因此,即使进行重新评分考试结果也不可能有任何改变。

Scoring

Overview

The Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination (MCCQE) Part II is scored independently of the MCCQE Part I. To be awarded the Licentiate of the Medical Council of Canada (LMCC), a candidate must pass both the MCCQE Part I and Part II.

The MCCQE Part II, like all Medical Council of Canada (MCC) exams is a criterion-referenced exam. This means that candidates who meet or exceed the standard will pass the exam regardless of how well other candidates perform on it.

The MCCQE Part II component is evaluated by physician examiners based on the candidate’s performance at each station.

How are OSCE stations scored

Objectivity is achieved through the use of standardized guidelines, the training of physician examiners and of standardized patients, and the use of predetermined station-specific scoring instruments for objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) stations.

OSCE stations are scored by the physician examiner using a checklist of tasks (see sample OSCE cases below for details). In almost all stations, the physician examiner also scores selected rating scale items related to the candidate’s interactions with the patient. For example, the physician examiner may be rating the candidate on “Questioning Skills” and/or “Organization of Physical Examination” and/or “Rapport with Person”.

In the case of couplet stations where the candidate is required to answer written questions, the candidate is also scored on his or her answers in the post-encounter probe. Physician examiners score candidates’ answers following the exam. For examples of the post-encounter probe questions and the correct answers, view the post-encounter probe for the history-taking station or the physical examination station below.

Candidates are expected to demonstrate appropriate, ethical and professional behaviour. When filling out the physician examiner checklist, physician examiners are asked whether the candidate’s performance was unsatisfactory and to specify the reason(s) for the unsatisfactory performance. Physician examiners must also answer the question: Did this candidate demonstrate a lapse in professional behaviour? If answering “yes”, the physician examiners must then elaborate on the observed lapse.

How are total scores and subscores calculated on the MCCQE Part II?

Each station is worth the same as every other station and a candidate’s total score is the average of his or her station scores. The total score is adjusted to reflect the level of difficulty of the stations experienced by candidates on a given exam date. The MCC reports scores on a standard-score format ranging from 50 to 950.

Sub-scores are calculated by converting each item to a percentage (i.e., checklist, rating scale, written or oral questions) across the 12 stations and taking the average of the percentages associated with each domain. There are four domain sub-scores reported on the MCCQE Part II: Data Acquisition, Problem Solving and Decision Making, Patient/Physician Interaction, and C²LEO (the Considerations of the Cultural-Communication, Legal, Ethical, and Organizational aspects of the practice of medicine).

How is the pass score established?

The MCC conducts a standard setting exercise every three to five years to ensure that the standard and the pass score remain appropriate. Standard setting is a process used to define an acceptable level of performance and to establish a pass score.

To this end, the MCC completed a rigorous standard setting exercise based on expert judgments from a panel of 20 physicians across the country that represented faculties of medicine, different specialties, and years of experience supervising students and residents. The Borderline Group Method used by MCC has been successfully employed (and defended) with a number of large-scale exam programs around the world. Following the standard setting exercise, the new pass score was brought forward to the Central Examination Committee (CEC) which reviewed and approved the recommendation. The CEC is represented by physicians and medical educators from across the country. The members of this Committee are chairs of our examination test committees and are appointed by Council. The CEC is responsible for the quality of our examinations and awards final results to our candidates (e.g., pass, fail).

Using the spring 2015 results of all MCCQE Part II candidates, the new scale was established to have a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100. Candidate results from the spring 2015 and subsequent exam sessions will be reported on this new scale allowing us to compare candidate performance across sessions beginning with the spring 2015 session. For example, a mean score of 510 on a future administration would indicate a stronger performance of that group than the spring 2015 group that had a mean of 500. On this new scale, the pass score that was recommended from the standard setting panel and approved by the CEC is 509. This pass score will remain in place for subsequent MCCQE Part II sessions.

Prior to 2015, the pass score for the MCCQE Part II was 475 on the old 50 to 950 scale. The new pass score (509) translates to 494 on the old scale.

How is a pass/fail decision made?

A candidate’s final result (e.g., pass, fail) is determined by his or her total score and where it falls in relation to the examination pass score. A total score equal to or greater than the pass score is a pass and a total score less than the pass score is a fail. The candidate’s performance is judged in relation to the examination pass score and not judged on how well other individuals performed.

What will appear on the Statement of Results (SOR) and on the Supplemental Feedback Report (SFR)?

The SOR includes the candidate’s final result and total score, as well as the pass score. Additional information about the total and sub-scores is provided on the SFR. The total score is reported on a standard-score scale ranging from 50 to 950. In contrast, the score profile in Figure 1 of the SFR displays a candidate’s domain sub-scores that indicate a candidate’s relative strengths and weaknesses in four areas. As a result, total scores cannot be compared to the score profile in the SFR as both are reported on different scales. Both the SOR and the SFR are made available through the candidate’s physiciansapply.ca account.

New in 2015 – changes to the SFR

Candidates from previous sessions may recall that their report contained a table with stations listed from high performance to low performance. As of 2015, the MCC has removed this table from the SFR as the information it contained, while correct, could be misinterpreted and/or misleading.

The table provided a rank order of stations, but candidate performance in some cases was equal, close to equal, or not equidistant across all stations. As a result of this change, in 2015 the report will be one page instead of two.

Results

Release of results

Examination results are confirmed by the MCC Central Examination Committee, which meets in June for the spring administration and in December for the fall administration.

After result confirmation, candidates will receive an email notification stating that they can verify their pass/fail result through their physiciansapply.ca account. The Statement of Results and the supplemental feedback report will be posted in candidates’ physiciansapply.ca accounts shortly thereafter. For candidates who have passed the examination, the MCC will also send out a package by mail with the candidate’s Licentiate documents.

Candidates applying to an organization that requires submission of certified copies of the Statement of Results or the supplemental feedback report can request that the MCC send certified copies. There is an administrative fee for this service

To prevent errors or fraud and for reasons of confidentiality, results cannot be given over the phone, by fax or by email.

How results are communicated

The Medical Council of Canada (MCC) issues candidates a Statement of Results through their physiciansapply.ca account. The Statement of Results includes the candidate’s final result and final score as well as the score that was required to pass the examination. The MCC also provides supplemental feedback on candidates’ examination performance through their physiciansapply.ca account. The MCC has prepared a help file to assist candidates in interpreting their MCCQE Part II supplemental feedback report.

Licenciate packages

Candidates should ensure that the mailing address the MCC has on file is up to date so that the Licentiate packages are sent to the correct address. The MCC must receive an address change at least two weeks before the mailing of Licentiate packages. If a candidate does not submit a change in address, he or she will be required to wait for the original package to be returned to the MCC so that it can be redirected to the new address. Candidates should update their mailing address through their physiciansapply.ca account.

Fails

The MCC does not limit the number of times a candidate may attempt the MCCQE Part II. However, candidates with a pass result on the MCCQE Part II cannot retake the examination in an attempt to obtain a higher score.

Rescore requests

Only candidates who have failed the MCCQE Part II can request a rescore; candidates with a pass result are not eligible for the rescoring service.

It is important for candidates to note that scores are verified several times before results are released. Given this scrutiny, it is unlikely that rescoring the examination will produce a change in result.

Candidates who wish to have their examination rescored must:

  • Submit a message through their physiciansapply.ca account that includes an explanation for the rescore request and their mailing address
  • Complete a Credit card authorization form including the applicable fee
  • Check the box next to “Other Fee” and indicate “Rescore request – MCCQE Part II
  • Send the completed form by email (service@mcc.ca) or fax (613-248-5234)

Fees are refunded if a rescore leads to a change in the final result (i.e., change from fail to pass).

Deadlines for filing MCCQE Part II rescore requests are September 1 for the spring exam and March 1 for the fall exam.

An MCCQE Part II rescore includes the following steps:

  • Authentication of all parts of your examination, including a complete file review (incident reports and physician comments)
  • Verification of the computer-scanned answer sheets for anomalies (torn sheets, stray marks, ink marks, etc.)
  • Verification of raw computer data against physician-completed answer sheets
  • Verification of the computer file scores against those reported in the result letter

A rescore does NOT include a re-evaluation of the candidate’s performance by additional examiners.

If the rescoring produces a change in final result, the MCC will issue a new Statement of Results and Supplemental Feedback Report to the candidate through his or her physiciansapply.ca account. The MCC will also send out a package by mail with the candidate’s Licentiate documents.

Rescores are processed within four to six weeks from the date they are received.

Appeals

Any MCCQE Part II candidate who has been denied standing, including any denial of entry to future examinations, or who considers that the results of an examination have been prejudiced by the conduct of the examination may appeal to the Appeals Committee. Candidates cannot seek to appeal the content on the examination.

Any candidate wishing to launch an appeal must notify the Executive Director in writing within 45 days of the decision of the Central Examination Committee. For more information on the appeal process for the MCCQE Part II, please review the MCC bylaws.
