Presentation Transcript
ABOS Part I/OITE Linking Study The American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery (ABOS) and the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) collaborated on the development of a collection of examination items that were included on both the 2023 ABOS Part I Certifying Examination and the 2023 AAOS OITE. The purpose of including a set of common items on both examinations is to identify the score on the OITE that approximately corresponds to the minimum passing performance level on the ABOS Part I Certifying Examination. Based on the linking study, a score of 165 or 62.5% on the OITE corresponded to the minimal passing standard on the ABOS Part I Certifying Examination.
