Abstract

In a mock objective structured clinical examination, 20 students were rotated round 4 observed stations. At each station two raters assessed and scored the students independently. The difference between raters assessment was correlated using Spearman correlation coefficient. The results showed that the assessment by two raters highly correlated suggesting that use of checklists in OSCE yields consistent results and is a reliable tool of evaluation.
