John is a faculty advisor for Sean, a third year medical student who just started his clerkship rotations. Sean emailed John to meet this week because he is worried about his upcoming shelf exam in neurology. They were mostly made up of open-ended questions and a few multiple choice questions. Ariane: I wonder if you would be able to orient us to how you think kind of broadly about assessment for health professions learners? John: There's a lot of different things going on in that case.
