When creating exams, the terminology is so important. Students from other countries are not only learning medical terminology, but also local phrases (words) which we take for granted that everyone understands.
Ian,
My answer may not have registered so I will repeat it here in this reply. I have written the book How to Survive and Maybe even Love Health Professions School Retention and Career Placement Guide. I have written a chapter on testing, How to Take a Test and even understand test anxiety. It is important for all ages to understand how to take a test. It is even more important for a lower skilled student to understand the basic concepts in testing. All styles of questions are covered and explained.
