Assessment at the University of Illinois College of Medicine
The Office of Educational Affairs ensures that medical students:
- have assessments that are developed collaboratively by faculty representing each campus and multiple disciplines;
- have a longitudinal view of their performance on quizzes and final exams so that data can be used as assessments for learning.
- become familiar with the expectations of the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) exams through repeated practice in a proctored environment;
- demonstrate clinical skills through examinations and faculty assessment throughout the MD program.

Evaluation at the University of Illinois College of Medicine
We solicit student evaluations in all phases of the curriculum and ensure that faculty on each campus have access to their evaluations through collaboration with each campus office of academic/curricular affairs. Students are active co-creators of their learning environment, through participation in program evaluation and course reviews. Our evaluation team meets with Student Curricular Board members from all campuses and delivers their feedback to college-wide course teams.
