The AFMC will present on a substantial project we conducted on the final year of Medical School. Often the final year of medical programs include electives, applications and interviews for residency positions consuming time and leaving little to show for the tuition paid and time spent for the medical education. We reviewed the final year content and processes at each of the medical schools in Canada. Multiple sources of data were then collated and analyzed to delineate best practices and a set of recommendations. We will share the processes used to collect data and the analysis and top recommendations.
