Abstract

In knowing student achievement in certain subjects, students are tested at least twice per semester. This test is expected to be able to accurately measure student competencies in certain subjects. When the results obtained come from a low quality achievement test, the wrong conclusions will be obtained. The method used to analyze the quality of exam questions is the Rasch model. The Rasch model can meet objective measurement criteria such as (1) Provide a linear measure with the same interval; (2) Carry out an appropriate estimation process; (3) finding misfits or outliers; (4) Overcoming missing data; and (5) Producing replicable measurements. The subject exam questions to be analyzed are the Organizational Psychology and Neuropsychology. The analysis shows that some exam questions require revision because parameter values below the standard should be. The process of evaluating exam questions must be carried out continuously to get a good question bank.
