HAMUI, Magali et al. Script Concordance Test: first nationwide experience in pediatrics. Arch. argent. pediatr. [online]. 2018, vol.116, n.1, pp.e151-e155. ISSN 0325-0075.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5546/aap.2018.e151.

The Script Concordance Test is a suitable test for assessing clinical reasoning in postgraduate medical education. We present the first nationwide, realtime, web-based experience of a Script Concordance Test administered to 3^rd year pediatric residents. The test was administered to 268 residents (postgraduate year 3), from 56 different programs, requiring 46.1 ± 27.1 minutes to complete it, and scoring 65.3 ± 7.47 points. A later survey showed limited satisfaction from participants. This experience showed that this kind of test is feasible in this setting.
