• This allows NBEMS for a more precise evaluation of strengths and weaknesses, helping to identify areas where further study or improvement may be needed.
• With sectional time limits, test-takers can easily manage their time within each section.
• Test-takers may be less likely to rush through questions or make careless errors if they know they have a limited amount of time to complete each section.
