Abstract
Objections: The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of having a formative OSCE on clinical performance in the final main summative OSCE, as measured by grades, comparing students who attended the formative OSCE to those who did not. Methods: A retrospective observational study was carried out at New Giza University's School of Medicine in Egypt. A total of 228 Year 1 students participated in the study, and their data was collected, including formative attendance records, formative grades, and final OSCE grades. The data was subjected to both quantitative and qualitative analysis. Results: Attendance in formative OSCEs resulted in significantly higher percentage scores in both the module final OSCE and the total final OSCE than those who did not attend the formative. The number of formatives attended was connected with higher percentage scores on the OSCE grades in general. Formative OSCEs exhibited an 84.5%-91.3% positive predictive value for passing the summative OSCE. The final IM (Introductory module) OSCE grade and the total final OSCE grade had a substantial positive weak association. Conclusion: Formative OSCEs were linked to greater summative OSCE performance. Several formative OSCEs should be included throughout the year to improve medical students' performance in their first year.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
