A qualititative-oriented method should be applied to assess high mental ability such as judgment and abilities to analyze and integrate.

With the introduction of Triple Jump, OSCE(Objective Structured Clinical Examination), and MEQ(Modified Essay Question) as suggested strategies of qualitative-oriented evaluation, the authors implied development of evaluation of problem-based learning.
