Popis: In June 2016, 8124 medical students in their sixth year of graduation passed the first computerized national ranking exam (CNRE) in France after which they will have to choose what medical specialty they will be practicing all their life. We conducted the first educational assessment of this CNRE according to two criteria: the relevance of the questions and the cognitive domain mainly required to answer these questions. We propose two improvements for the future CNRE: promote student reasoning in the multiple choices questions, reduce to 10 the number of multiple choice questions in the progressive clinical cases and increase by 9 their total number (from 18 to 27), and use a majority of mini-clinical cases for isolated multiple choice questions in order to focus students on reasoning instead of simple knowledge restitution.
