Data was analyzed by SPSS (version 18).Results: The quality of MCQs in PREBOARD EXAMINATION of (TUMS) and national BOARD EXAMINATION was different and the difference was significant. National board tests were more reliable in general surgery and in PREBOARD EXAMINATION of (TUMS) in internal medicine. Pediatric and general surgery residency preboard MCQs of (TUMS) had significantly low level of learning comparing to national board MCQs and had more structural problems.Conclusion: There was a significant difference in the quality of MCQs in PREBOARD EXAMINATION of (TUMS) and national BOARD EXAMINATION according to the disciplines.
