Are there any advantages to using a common medium versus using different media for performing the
susceptibility tests with regard to standardization of results across laboratories?

Yes. Using a common medium may result in smaller variances/standard deviations of the measurements
obtained for all three types of microorganisms. Smaller variances/standard deviations in measurements
imply better repeatability of an experiment.
