| Popis: |
SUNY Upstate Medical University (Upstate) recently revised two 1-year special master's programs (SMPs), designed to enhance academics in preparation for medical school through rigorous graduate science coursework. Upstate SMP program success was measured by graduate performance during the first year of medical school. First-year performance measures included academic deficiencies, exam performance, and participation grades in a longitudinal case-based course on ethics and public health. Upstate SMP students with MCAT scores below the 50th percentile or who self-report classified as underrepresented in medicine outperformed controls on several metrics. Upstate SMP students consistently bested controls in the longitudinal course. Overall, Upstate SMP graduates performed commensurately with classmates. |
