This study was performed to identify academic and nonacademic predictors of the success of entrants to Chungbuk National University Graduate Medical School (CNUMS) during the first 3 years of completion.
We analyzed the academic achievements in preclinical education in the first 2 years in students who were admitted in 2005 and 2006 and compared them with cognitive admission variables and demographic characteristics.
There was no significant difference in academic achievement between students groups that were classified by gender, age, or academic degree type. Among Medical Education Eligibility Test (MEET) subscale scores, Verbal Reasoning was correlated with 'Medical humanities & social sciences' and 'Basic clinical procedures;' Nature Science Reasoning 1 with 'Basic medical sciences;' and Nature Science Reasoning 2 with 'Basic medical sciences' and 'Clinical medicine.' Undergraduate GPA correlated well with all academic achievements. English test scores did not correlate with academic performance.
Among all of the variables that were examined, undergraduate GPA score was the most reliable variable in predicting academic achievement during the 2-year preclinical medical education, and MEET scores were a secondary indicator of academic achievement at CNUMS.
本研究旨在确定忠北国立大学医学院（CNUMS）入学新生在完成学业的前3年中取得成功的学术和非学术预测因素。
我们分析了2005年和2006年入学学生前两年临床前教育的学术成绩，并将其与认知入学变量和人口统计学特征进行比较。
按性别、年龄或学位类型分类的学生群体在学术成绩上没有显著差异。在医学教育资格考试（MEET）子量表分数中，言语推理与“医学人文与社会科学”和“基本临床程序”相关；自然科学推理1与“基础医学科学”相关；自然科学推理2与“基础医学科学”和“临床医学”相关。本科平均绩点与所有学术成绩都有很好的相关性。英语考试成绩与学业表现无关。
在所有检查的变量中，本科平均绩点分数是预测两年临床前医学教育期间学术成绩最可靠的变量，MEET分数是CNUMS学术成绩的次要指标。
