Establishing the criterion validity of the Graduate Australian Medical School Admissions Test

Description:

While GAMSAT has been in use since 1995, its criterion validity has not been fully established. As a selection instrument, the capacity of GAMSAT to support and add value to other selection mechanisms and to predict future performance is critical. ACER undertook an evaluation to review the concurrent and predictive validity of the instrument.
