Please take the MS1 survey if you haven’t yet
You could win up to a $50 item
A message from Sara Kim, Associate Dean for Educational Quality Improvement: I thank each of you who took the time to complete the MS1 survey. The survey fulfills an important role towards the medical school’s accreditation status reports to the LCME (Liaison Committee on Medical Education). I will be providing a weekly update on the survey response status.
Within a week, we have already exceeded the 30 percent response rate (at 32.3 percent as of April 12). What is remarkable is that 48.5 percent of Seattle students and 40 percent of Montana students completed the survey. In my handling of student surveys over the past years, I haven’t seen this type of a high response rate so early in the survey administration. Other campuses are also off to a great start: Idaho (28.9 percent), Spokane (20 percent), Wyoming (10 percent), and Alaska (5.6 percent). Thank you all!
The survey link is emailed to you directly from eqi@uw.edu. Please know we only use your email addresses for tracking survey completion; your responses are anonymous.
Please see the survey incentives below.
We are offering the following incentives via a drawing:
- Two $50 gifts (Student-selected item on Amazon)
- Twelve $25 gifts (Student-selected item on Amazon)
Thank you for your help with reaching a response rate of 80 percent.
