Abstract:
1) We evaluated the clinical experiences of 102 medical students who completed clinical clerkships at the University of Tsukuba, by analyzing their self-assessments on the clinical evaluation form normally used for the postgraduate residency program.
2) The medical students participated in the management of a broad range of diseases. However, in most cases, their participation was only partial.
3) To improve the continuity between the undergraduate and postgraduate medical education systems, it is important to expand the amount of hands-on participation of medical students in medical practice.
