Yes – The ExploreCME Mock PANCE and its associated self-assessment quizzes are strong predictors of performance on national benchmark exams, with statistically significant correlations across three major assessments. The most robust relationship is seen with first-time PANCE results (r = 0.83, n = 39), highlighting the Mock PANCE’s close alignment with outcomes on the actual licensure exam. Meaningful positive correlations are also observed with the PACKRAT (r = 0.74, n = 29) and the PAEA End of Curriculum™ exam (r = 0.71, n = 65), supporting the use of these self-assessments to gauge PA student readiness against national standards.

In addition, a strong positive correlation (r = 0.77) is demonstrated between completion of the ExploreCME Comprehensive PANCE Prep modules and PANCE success. Students who completed at least 85% of the modules achieved a 96.4% first-time PANCE pass rate, with 27 successes among 28 first-time attempts during the study period.
