Guest: Jamie L. North Ware, MD, FACOG
Overview
Join the Modern MedEd hosts as they explore the transition of the USMLE Step 1 exam to a pass/fail outcome. Dr. Leslie Hardy Hood reviews key excerpts from her interview with special guest Dr. Jamie North Ware. What is the purpose of the Step 1 exam, and why did the score reporting system recently change? How are learners and educators adapting, and how do the changes potentially impact curriculum design for medical students? And, without numerical scores acting as a differentiator for academic performance, how can students demonstrate their competence and individual talents as they look ahead to the residency application process?
