X. Oral Exam Scoring:
As with the first exam, scoring is completed immediately after the exam so that four independent scores are rendered prior to any discussion. Each examiner will render a “pass” or “fail” score recognizing that the goal is to pass all reasonable candidates. The final score is then determined such that failure by one examiner is insufficient to fail an otherwise passing candidate. Receiving two or more scores of “fail” will cause an overall score of fail. Pass and fail will be rendered solely on the basis of the score from the four examiners and candidates will be notified as soon as administratively possible.
All information discussed and or any disclosures made during the oral board examination will be held in complete confidentiality of the current ABNM Board of directors and participating examiners. This confidentiality applies not only to the examination itself but also to the results of the examination as well as the discussion of said results. Results and pursuant discussion will only be disclosed and had with the candidate and not with any other person or persons. |
