INTRODUCTION: We created a comprehensive, internally developed, knowledge-based assessment called the Year 1 Comprehensive Abilities Assessment (Y1-CAA) in order to address the unique assessment needs of an accelerated three-year pharmacy program. This study investigated the correlation between the Y1-CAA and performance on a variety of academic factors, including, but not limited to, curricular performance, Pharmacy Curriculum Outcomes Assessment (PCOA) scores, and North American Pharmacist Licensure Examination (NAPLEX) scores.
METHODS: The 120 question Y1-CAA was created and benchmarked by the faculty and given to students at the end of the first professional year. Y1-CAA scores were compared to a host of variables, including student demographics, pre-pharmacy grade point average (GPA), Pharmacy College Admission Test scores, PCOA scores, pharmacy school GPA, and NAPLEX scores using appropriate statistical methods.
RESULTS: A total of 233 students were included in the study. Performance on the Y1-CAA was positively correlated with performance in the pharmacy curriculum and on the PCOA. Y1-CAA performance also showed a significant correlation with NAPLEX scaled scores (R = 0.568, P < .001).
CONCLUSIONS: This study found a positive correlation between performance on the Y1-CAA and academic success, performance on the PCOA, and performance on the NAPLEX.
