How are the CPAN® and CAPA® practice examinations scored?
Feedback about your performance on the practice examination will be given. The passing scores for the CPAN® and CAPA® practice examinations have been set by ABPANC at a total scale score of 450. For the purposes of scoring the practice examinations, an average of the passing points used in the past several administrations on the actual CPAN® and CAPA® examinations has been used to determine the number of questions one would have to answer correctly to achieve a scale score of 450 on the practice examinations. Please note: A certain score on the practice examination does not in any way predict or guarantee the same or similar score on any of ABPANC’s actual certification examinations. Practice examinations can be used to provide an indication of your level or preparation for the actual certification examination, however they cannot be relied on to accurately predict performance on an actual certification examination.
