CLEP subject examinations for the areas of clinical chemistry, microbiology, hematology and immunohematology were administered to medical technology (MT) and medical laboratory technician (MLT) students. Test scores were analyzed and showed that MT students scored from 25% to 48% higher than MLT students. Mean percentile ranks were compared with college courses completed; these indicated that additional upper division academic courses raised the mean percentile rank. Results indicate that the Microbiology Category Examination evaluates general microbiology rather than clinical microbiology. Data in this study support the use of the CLEP examinations to measure cognitive knowledge of MLTs for upward mobility, thereby eliminating duplication of course content.
