Administrative Activities
Students are required to complete the following administrative activities to guarantee satisfactory progress in your clerkship. Complete information can be found on the WRITE Canvas page.
1. Participate in the WRITE Orientation
Information about the orientation (date, time, zoom link) will be emailed to you.
2. Complete Clinical Encounters and Workplace Based Assessments
Failure to complete the WRITE required clinical encounters may affect your ability to progress from the Clerkship Phase. Any missing workplace-based assessments may result in a fail for the WRITE clerkship.
3. Schedule and Actively Engage in Mid/End-of-Clerkship Reviews
The purpose of these reviews is to provide you with formative feedback on your performance and track your completion of the clerkship curriculum. Reviews are held with your Primary Preceptor or Site Director.
These are required and due at week 6 of MEDLIC 601 and week 5 of MEDLIC 602 for sites without OBGYN and at week 6 of MEDLIC 602 for sites with OBGYN.
Please note these reviews are an LCME requirement and are not replaced by workplace-based assessments. Failure to submit the mid-clerkship feedback in Canvas may result in a fail for the WRITE clerkship.
4. Complete NBME Exams for MEDLIC 601 and MEDLIC 602
Students will be taking four NBME exams at the end of weeks 6, 12, 18, and 21 of their WRITE clerkships. FAMED will be at the end of week 6, and students will have the option to choose when they will take their remaining exams (OBGYN, PEDS, PSYCH). If students do not have a preference they will take PEDS in week 12, PSYCH at week 18, and OBGYN at week 21.
Exams cannot be rescheduled unless allowed by the Exam Reschedule Policy.
5. Participate in Didactic Sessions
Students will participate in prescheduled didactic sessions from the OBGYN and PEDS clerkships as well as the Pain Medicine (TelePain) and Geriatrics (Project ECHO) specialties. Students will see their scheduled dates in Canvas along with instructions on how to join each respective didactic session.
6. Complete Medical Student Evaluation of Clerkship at End of WRITE
During the last week of WRITE, you will receive an email asking you to evaluate your WRITE Clerkship experience. Your responses are confidential and will not be shared with your preceptors for at least one year. The course/clerkship evaluation is a requirement to view your final grade in E*Value.
