I used multiple-choice tests in this class for a few reasons: First, it
was a large class with 120+ students. Second, I didn't have a teaching
assistant to help with grading (or for that matter, anything else with
the class). Third, I'm teaching as an adjunct professor in addition to
my full-time clinical and administrative duties.
One reason I give them is students need to be able to show their
knowledge and ability on multiple choice tests to get into graduate or
professional programs and to get licenses for most professions. Our
students have to write papers and essays in all our courses but get
almost no practice at difficult multiple choice tests.
