• External Evaluators for two postgraduate programs (Master Degree of Pediatrics and MD of Neurosurgery)
![Page 34: Quality Assurance &Accreditation Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Efforts, Achievements & Challenges Lamis Ragab, MD Vice Dean for Postgraduate Studies](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649ddb5503460f94ad1ecc/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• In general terms, the Egyptian MD candidates were fairly well prepared and had an adequate fund of knowledge. Most demonstrated an adequate knowledge of the field and appropriately managed the clinical cases presented to them.
![Page 35: Quality Assurance &Accreditation Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Efforts, Achievements & Challenges Lamis Ragab, MD Vice Dean for Postgraduate Studies](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649ddb5503460f94ad1ecc/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
• Another significant difference between the US ABNS and Egyptian MD examinations is with regards to the area of test objectivity.
![Page 36: Quality Assurance &Accreditation Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Efforts, Achievements & Challenges Lamis Ragab, MD Vice Dean for Postgraduate Studies](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649ddb5503460f94ad1ecc/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• Another major difference in the US and Egypt systems are that the US examinees are expected to pass the oral boards on the first try. From my understanding, approximately 80% of the candidates do so. A lower pass rate suggests that the examinees were poorly trained or that there were potential testing irregularities that precluded the examinees from obtaining a higher pass rate. Also, the examinees are allowed to sit for the oral boards three times. If they are not successful by the third try, they must re-take their written examinations before being allowed to re-take the oral boards.
![Page 37: Quality Assurance &Accreditation Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Efforts, Achievements & Challenges Lamis Ragab, MD Vice Dean for Postgraduate Studies](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649ddb5503460f94ad1ecc/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Having participated and observed MD examination process, I would make the following major suggestions:
• There should be a single Egyptian board examination comprised of a highly objective written examination.
• The oral board examiners should be selected from a pool of MD’s (that do not necessarily need to be University Professors) and this pool should be rotated yearly so as to increase the objectivity of the examiners.
• Prior to sitting for the oral boards, the potential examinees should have:
• a) passed their written exams• b) submitted practice data which should be reviewed for
safety and consistency.
![Page 38: Quality Assurance &Accreditation Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Efforts, Achievements & Challenges Lamis Ragab, MD Vice Dean for Postgraduate Studies](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649ddb5503460f94ad1ecc/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
• They are allowed to go for a maximum of three times for their oral exams; at which time if they fail all three times they should repeat the written exams again.
• A 70-80% pass rate should be expected in board exams.• Residency programs should provide teaching and clinical
scenarios that simulate the oral board (MD) testing experience so that the examinees have a rational framework for thought processes.
• The oral board (MD) testing experience should be made as objective as possible through the incorporation of known/expected clinical scenarios and patient encounters. There should be specific objective measures (fund of knowledge, management skills, interpretation of diagnostic tests, etc) rated during the exam independently by each examiner followed by a conference after the first testing sessions.
![Page 39: Quality Assurance &Accreditation Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Efforts, Achievements & Challenges Lamis Ragab, MD Vice Dean for Postgraduate Studies](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649ddb5503460f94ad1ecc/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

![Page 41: Quality Assurance &Accreditation Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Efforts, Achievements & Challenges Lamis Ragab, MD Vice Dean for Postgraduate Studies](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649ddb5503460f94ad1ecc/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• 3) Effective Quality Management and Enhancement :• ○ Functioning reporting system; reports of the academic
year 2005/2006 were completed • ○ Revision of the mission, approved by the Faculty
Council in September 2007• ○ Establishment of an internal audit committee for the
educational program• ○ Regular meeting between the members of the quality
assurance unit and the dean and the three vice deans• ○ Realistic action plan covering all areas in the
educational program, with a justified budget
![Page 42: Quality Assurance &Accreditation Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Efforts, Achievements & Challenges Lamis Ragab, MD Vice Dean for Postgraduate Studies](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649ddb5503460f94ad1ecc/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
• 4) Research and Other Scholarly Activities:
• ○ A strategy and plan for research activities based on the research strategy of the University
• ○ New postgraduate bylaws adopting the credit hour system (ECTS)
![Page 43: Quality Assurance &Accreditation Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Efforts, Achievements & Challenges Lamis Ragab, MD Vice Dean for Postgraduate Studies](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649ddb5503460f94ad1ecc/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
• What is ECTS? • The European Credit Transfer and
Accumulation System is a student-centred system based on the student workload required to achieve the objectives of a programme, objectives preferably specified in terms of the learning outcomes and competences to be acquired.
