All question sevaluated in three levels of Bloom's TAXONOMY; one (knowledge and under standing), two (Applicationand Analysis), and three (synthesis and evaluation).

The structure of tests was analyzed byusing the Mailman multiple-choice checklist.Results: Out of 705 questions which were examined in this study, the majority belonged to the Department of Medical-Surgical. Most questions (84.6 percent) had one TAXONOMY level. Consideringdifficulty index, most of the questions (332 items) were very difficult, and among the studied subjects, Medical-Surgical 3 was the most difficult (61.42 percent) and obstetric nursing (2) was the least difficult(10 percent). Related to the discrimination index, majority of questions had average discriminationcoefficient (29.36 percent) and among the subjects studied mental illnesses nursing (1) had the bestcoefficient. Most questions (1.84 per cent) had appropriate structure.Conclusion: This study showed that based on Bloom's TAXONOMY, difficulty coefficient anddiscrimination coefficient wasn’t in good condition in the Nursing Faculty of Urmia University ofMedical Sciences, and it requires further planning by Medical Education Development Center.
