Abstract
The Assessment Management System (AMS) at the College of Medicine and Health Sciences (CMHS), United Arab Emirates University has been in use now for five years. 450 assessments of the Multiple Choice Question (MCQ) variety have been conducted over this period. Currently there are over 25,000 unique MCQ questions in the question bank which have been developed by CMHS faculty members for the most part, assessing all levels of the medical curriculum. These questions are stored in the system along with their tags and psychometric data. The aim of this research is to analyze examinee examination behaviors during multiple choice question exams using log file "big data" for the purpose of extracting valid insights leading to evidence-based educational decision-making.
