From the 1 October 2025, a student will always be tested on 3 individual questions during the state examination in pediatrics. These questions are arranged in advance in a triplet, the number of which the student draws. The questions in this triplet are marked with the letters a), b), and c). If the classification of the answer to one question in the triplet fails (4), the entire part of the state examination will be evaluated with the result failed (4), and the state examination in pediatrics will be concluded with the conclusion failed. Pediatrics is a comprehensive examination, and the questions are only a guide for the course of the part of the state rigorous examination, with the overlap of the student's knowledge in other subjects. The commission may interrupt the examination at any time to vote on the evaluation. The commission votes on the evaluation of individual questions and the overall result, and the classification of the part of the state's rigorous examination.
The pediatrics station also includes an exam on imaging methods. The student draws one of the numbers from 1 to 80 and describes the image adequately (type of imaging method, body part imaged, followed by a logical description of structures, including physiological findings and abnormalities, and finally, the student states the probable diagnosis corresponding to the image). The images come from 4 areas of imaging methods according to anatomical division: head, chest, abdomen, and skeleton. If a student fails any question (theoretical questions from one of the areas or imaging methods), the exam is not continued, and the resulting classification of the part of the state rigorous exam is a fail.
