Estimados
estudiantes de último año:
Desde el
pasado año la Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) inició el piloto
de entrevistas de Residencias Médicas por medio de videos pre-grabados. Este
piloto es obligatorio sólo para Medicina de Emergencia, sin embargo, en el
pasado MATCH algunos programas de otras especialidades también realizaron
entrevistas online.
Debajo
encontrarán información importante sobre esta nueva modalidad.

Subject: AAMC Standardized Video Interview for ERAS 2019
Greetings,
In ERAS
2018, the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) launched a pilot
program of their Standardized Video Interview (SVI). The AAMC will continue to
pilot this program in ERAS 2019.
Completion
of the SVI is a mandatory requirement for ERAS applicants to emergency medicine programs.
Emergency medicine program directors will use the video interview as an added
component when evaluating applications.
The SVI
will present six questions centered around the ACGME core competencies of
Knowledge of Professional Behaviors and Interpersonal and Communication Skills.
The AAMC describes the SVI as “an innovative tool designed to assess knowledge
of professional behaviors (professionalism) and interpersonal and communication
skills, two ACGME competencies that have been identified as requirements for
success as a resident and in future practice.”
The
deadline to complete the SVI is July 15, 2018, 11:59 p.m. ET, so please
encourage your students who are planning to apply to emergency medicine
programs to start preparing for the interview now, and to purchase their token and register with
MyERAS early to allow time to complete the SVI process. Tokens for ERAS 2019
will be available for purchase through OASIS and the MyECFMG mobile app
beginning June 21, 2018.
If you or
your students have questions regarding the SVI, please contact the AAMC at residencyinterview@aamc.org or by
telephone at (202) 862-6264.
Sincerely,
Sean
McCunney
