ChatGPT clears US Medical Licensing Exam: Study

Los Angeles: ChatGPT could score at or around the approximately 60 per cent passing threshold for the United States Medical Licensing Exam (USMLE), with responses that made coherent, internal sense and contained frequent insights, according to a new study.

Tiffany Kung and colleagues at AnsibleHealth, California, US, tested ChatGPT's performance on the USMLE, a



highly standardized and regulated series of three exams, including Steps 1, 2CK, and 3, required for medical licensure in the US, the study said.

Taken by medical students and physicians-in-training, the USMLE assesses knowledge spanning most medical disciplines, ranging from biochemistry, to diagnostic reasoning, to bioethics.
