You are preparing for your mid$-$term evaluation. You are rating yourself on the "Clinical Reasoning" performance criterion. After carefully reading the description of the performance criterion, you review the sample behaviors for this criterion. You determine that your clinical behaviors align with most of the sample behaviors under the Intermediate Performance. $(3)$ and Advanced Intermediate Performance $(4)$ levels. How should you decide which of the two ratings $(3-$ Intermediate Performance vs$.4-$ Advanced Intermediate Performance$)$ to report on your mid$-$term assessment?

You can select either rating because there is no rationale for differentiating between the two scores in a performance level span.

You should rate yourself the lower rating $(3-$Intermediate Performance$)$ if it is your first full$-$time clinical experience and the higher rating $(4-$ Advanced Intermediate Performance$)$ if this is your final full$-$time clinical experience.

You should compare yourself to other student's performance when determining between the two performance levels.

You should consider how much supervision you require from the Cl and the caseload you are managing before making your rating.
