Abstract

The study aims to answer the extent to which postgraduate faculty members observe the specifications of good test paper. It focuses on the criterion of diversity in the questions, and the criterion of the inclusion of questions in the subjects of the course, criterion for diversity in the scooping levels measured by the questions? The study is limited to a sample of tests prepared by faculty members in the fields of social sciences or humanities in postgraduate studies - College of Education - Sana'a University, for the semester 2007-2008 AD. The research has found that the proportions of multiple-choice questions in which the drafting criteria were met ranged between (94%) and (100%), and this means that the faculty members who prepared these questions had a good level of competencies related to preparing this type of question. However, postgraduate exams at Sana'a University - College of Education are not as they should be, and these exams need to be reconsidered either in terms of the philosophy on which they are based, or in terms of the quality and comprehensiveness of the questions.
