The objective of medical doctor competency examination named as UKDI is to assess the competency of medical doctor graduates in knowledge domain based on the 7 core competencies of medical doctor established by Director General of Higher Education (DGHE). The aim of this study was to identify whether there was a correlation between the result scores of the tryout of medical doctor competence examination and the graduates’ academic achievement assessed from their grade point average (GPA). The scores of 55 participants of the tryout UKDI conducted on May 2006 who were originated from faculty of medicine UMY were analyzed whether there was any correlation with their GPA. The study results revealed that there was a moderate correlation between scores of tryout exam with medical doctor graduates’ GPA (r 0,59); a moderate correlation between the tryout exam scores with the graduates’ GPA during clerkship (r 0,45) and a strong correlation between the tryout exam scores with the graduates’ GPA during under graduate medical education (r 0,62). of graduates. These result indicated the medical students’ academic achievement had a correlation with the scores of the tryout of medical doctor competence examination. Therefore, the implementation of competence-based curriculum should be more optimized on the process as well as on the assessment. We suggest that medical doctor competency examination should assess knowledge, skills and attitude domain comprehensively. In the implementation of the competence- based curriculum, evaluation of competency achievement tends to be formative assessment.
