      To prepare for exam, do we have to memorize all cut off scores and MCDs? I am having hard time what to focus on outcome measures

      Hello! My recommendation is to have a general idea of significant values for the big outcome measures (like the Core Outcomes). For example, for the FGA, I’d know that <23/30 is the falls risk cut-off and 4-6 points represents a meaningful change.

      I wouldn't try to memorize everything for all the outcome measures. You should be in good shape if you can generally interpret how a patient is doing by looking at the scores (knowing what the measures assesses, the score range, if high or low scores are better, etc.).
