Summative Assessment

Prior to the completion of the Summer II semester, a comprehensive summative examination covering topics presented during the Didactic Phase will be administered. The summative examination will include components of a written examination as well as demonstration of competency using clinical application stations. The purpose of this examination is to provide the Program with a measure of each student’s base of medical knowledge and preparedness for the Clinical Phase. Students who earn a grade of less than 70% (C) will be required to remediate area(s) of deficit and may be referred to the Student Progress Committee (SPC) for recommendations on progression in the Program.

Policies on requesting accommodations for testing can be found in the Lincoln Memorial University website Accessible Education Services (lmunet.edu) https://www.lmunet.edu/student-life/accessible-educations-services/accessible-education-services
