As the COVID-19 pandemic spread to the United States, it was followed by unprecedented changes. These changes did not spare undergraduate and graduate medical students. Specifically, medical students applying for residency programs were faced with a novel challenge. In March 2020, as the pandemic became increasingly severe, the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) recommended pulling medical students from in-person clinical rotations. By May 2020, the AAMC recommended that all residency interviews be conducted online for the 2020-2021 residency application cycle. These unprecedented modifications to the interview season required programs to quickly adapt and find ways to utilize online tools to convey what their program offered to applicants. In this paper, we will outline the adaptations, tools, and resources that residencies and applicants have used to navigate through the 2020/2021 interview cycle.
随着新冠疫情蔓延至美国,随之而来的是前所未有的变化。这些变化也影响到了本科和研究生医学生。具体而言,申请住院医师培训项目的医学生面临着一项新挑战。2020年3月,随着疫情日益严峻,美国医学院协会(AAMC)建议让医学生停止线下临床轮转。到2020年5月,AAMC建议在2020 - 2021住院医师申请周期中,所有住院医师面试都通过线上进行。面试季的这些前所未有的调整要求各项目迅速适应,并找到利用在线工具向申请人传达其项目所提供内容的方法。在本文中,我们将概述住院医师培训项目和申请人在2020/2021面试周期中所采用的调整措施、工具和资源。
