Amy Holthouser is a former Associate Dean for Medical Education. In this episode, she walks us through some of the seismic shifts in medical education from her ten years running a medical school.
We’ll explore the controversial transition of the USMLE Step 1 to a pass/fail system amidst a backdrop of pass/fail medical school courses which has left medical schools without a way to incentivize their students to achieve academic excellence and an increased pressure on students to publish research to differentiate themselves on residency applications. Then, we confront the growing tension within medical academia between students and educators as medical schools are judged on their students satisfaction scores.
