This state of the art article explores what is known from the international and Danish literature on admission criteria as predictors of success in medical education. Previous academic performance is the best known predictor of medical students' grades. Poorer entry qualifications, broadly defined, are associated with dropout in medical education. Admission interviews may have a small additive explanatory effect on medical students' grades, but the effect on dropout has barely been investigated. Admission interviews are a challenge for the feasibility, reliability and validity of medical student selection. Admission variables in use should be supported by predictive validity.
这篇前沿文章探讨了国际和丹麦文献中关于入学标准作为医学教育成功预测因素的已知内容。以往的学业成绩是医学生成绩最广为人知的预测因素。广义而言，较差的入学资格与医学教育中的辍学相关。入学面试可能对医学生的成绩有较小的附加解释作用，但对辍学的影响几乎未被研究。入学面试对医学生选拔的可行性、可靠性和有效性构成挑战。所使用的入学变量应具备预测效度的支持。
