AT-test and Exams

November 20, 2016 Leave a comment

The Cortexio site Hypocampus has been approved to use the AT test! They are also working on putting in exams for the Medical Program, but there is work yet to be done before everything is in place.

AT-test

Hypocampus has now added AT tests from the last five years. By linking the questions to the four categories General Medicine, Internal Medicine, Surgery and Psychiatry, it is possible to provide detailed information about the areas that AT doctors need to study.

Once you do the questions, there are two new fields that are not in the common questions on the material: Description of Case and Specific Answer.

Description

At the top of the question is a description of the case, which question, from which test, from which the question is. For example,  AT test, 2016 February, Case 1, Question 11.  It makes it easy to check which test the question came from at http://atprovet.se/skriflig-examination/atprovarkiv

Specific answer

Usually we link the answer to the material that is in a book. When it comes to the AT test (and exams) it is often a specific answer that is not so easy to show by just connecting to the material. Therefore, we show a specific answer on the AT test and exams that is in the worked solution for the test.

We are working to get a better connection to the material in Hypocampus to provide even better feedback on what you need to read more about.

Payment

We have chosen to introduce a premium version of the AT part. We think we add so much value that it is worth paying for free access to AT tests and statistics in Hypocampus. (And so we need help to pay for development and maintenance).

If you choose not to pay, you will still have the opportunity to try out full functionality through our trial period. After the trial period ends, you are limited to only being able to answer 3 AT questions each day, and your statistics are not displayed.

This does not affect Hypocampus’ other parts in any way – material, statistics or questions.

Exams for the Medical Program

We are also putting in exams for the Medical Program. This part is under construction and will take some time before we get approved to take exams. But we’re working on it!

Thanks to everyone who provides feedback to Hypocampus! We know that many people want to be able to do old exams thanks to the feedback you provide.

Thanks to Björn Åberg for letting us use pictures from Örondiagnostik (Ear Diagnostics), I, II and III. The books came in the 80’s and 90’s and are of high quality. Björn also wants to take the opportunity to thank Staffan Börjesson for assistance with the photo lab.

Leif Ingvarsson and Kaj Lundgren also stand for text.

Resume question session

There are more and more questions on the Cortexio site Hypocampus and it’s not easy to answer everything during a single question session. Now it’s possible to resume the most recent question session and continue where you left off. You can find the previous session by clicking Previous session in the  upper left of the question selector.

You will then see the last session and what results you had: right, wrong and unanswered. Click Continue and you will get to your last answered question at the previous question session.
