An objective medical student examination in obstetrics.
The objective structured clinical examination is now being used to examine medical students in obstetrics. Each student circulates around various timed stations where he carries out preset tasks. Groups of up to 20 students can be tested in rotation against previously agreed upon checklists. A wide range of clinical and practical skills can be objectively assessed in this way.
