USMLE & NBME COMMITTEES AND VOLUNTEERS 2017 DIRECTORY

The high quality of the United States Medical Licensing Examination® (USMLE®) is in large

part due to the enormous effort of hundreds of volunteers who serve on USMLE committees.

In addition to participation in test material development activities, medical school faculty

members and practicing physicians serve on committees charged with item review, content-

based standard setting activities, test blueprint construction, form review, overall examination

design and policy, and resolution of issues associated with examination security. Select

committees developing test materials for the USMLE also provide guidance for staff in the

development of the National Board of Medical Examiners® (NBME®) subject examinations.

The work of our test committee members in meeting the extraordinary standards of the

national licensure examination program exemplifies the medical profession’s tradition of

public service.

USMLE and NBMEExamination Committees

The USMLE program devotes considerable effortto ensuring that test committee membersadequately represent the content areas required formedical practice as well as the realities of clinicalpractice. As a result, USMLE test committeemembers constitute a "national faculty" ofmedicine drawn from medical schools and clinicalpractice settings across the United States.

In 2017, 46% of committee members werewomen. Minority racial/ethnic groups made up21% of members. Sixty-three percent held amedical degree, 30% both a medical degree andanother advanced degree, and 6% a PhD degreealone. A small number held degrees in nursingor other related fields. In terms of geographic

distribution, 37% were from the South, 24%from the Midwest, 24% from the Northeast, and15% from the West. Four percent of ourcommittee members were either current orformer members of state licensing boards. Overthe last ten years, virtually all Liaison Committeeon Medical Education (LCME)-accreditedmedical schools in the United States have beenrepresented on committees supporting USMLE.

The National Board of Medical Examiners, andthe profession and public served by the USMLE,are indebted to these volunteers who contributetheir expertise and energy to the creation of anational licensing examination system that iswithout equal.

KEY: In the map above, the number of committee members residing in each state is indicated by colorgradation (no shading represents no committee members; darkest shading represents the largestnumber of committee members). Included in this count are members of the USMLE ManagementCommittee, USMLE test material development committees and task forces, and USMLEinterdisciplinary review committees.

USMLE TEST COMMITTEE MEMBERS PRACTICE AND TEACH IN EVERY REGION OF THE UNITED STATES.In 2017, committee members came from almost every state.
