Only 5.9% of tests were really acted as four choice questions but others were as one or two choices. 76.2% exams of the study had negative reliability coefficient and only 23.8% of them had positive reliability coefficient that their amount had been variable from +0.03 to maximum +0.5 for one EXAMINATION.CONCLUSION: According to the results, designing final exams was not suitable and exams that used to evaluate the student education outcome had essential and structural errors.
