How we build practice you can rely on.
A reasoning tool is only as good as the reasoning it is checked against. This page explains how Medutors content is created and reviewed, how scoring works, and where the tool stops.
Four stages before a case reaches you
AI helps assemble and adapt practice sets. It does not decide what is clinically correct. That decision sits with reviewed content.
Authoring
Each case is written from a defined presentation pattern with its discriminating findings, expected differential and reference sources recorded alongside it.
Clinical review
A clinically qualified reviewer checks the facts, the reasoning chain and the best answer against current textbooks and guidelines before publication.
Exam alignment
Items are tagged to exam patterns and syllabus areas so difficulty and style match the papers learners are preparing for.
Revision and retirement
Learner reports and guideline changes trigger re-review. Items that no longer reflect current practice are revised or removed.
What the score measures, and what it does not
Scoring compares your path with a reviewed teaching path. It measures how closely your exam reasoning follows sound clinical logic. It does not grade clinical competence.
Reference path
Every case carries a reviewed reasoning chain: the key clues, the expected differential at each stage and the best next step.
Step comparison
Your decisions at each stage are compared with that chain. Matches are confirmed; departures are recorded as divergences.
Concept tagging
Each divergence is linked to the concept it tested, so repeated errors across different subjects can be grouped together.
Teaching weights
Percentages shown in differential panels are teaching weights that illustrate how evidence shifts a ranking. They are not clinical probabilities.
