 | Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ Let’s kick this chat off with a few minutes of introductions—let us know who you are and where you’re joining us from. And remember to use the hashtag #LASMedical on all of your tweets so everyone can follow along! |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ We’re a company that does coaching, consulting, and curriculum development in medicine and the allied health professions, both one on one and with groups/programs. #LASMedical |
 | Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba Hello all. I'm Shereese, from Maryland. I just got in from the #blockchainhealth conference in DC. There are some great things https://t.co/nuUIwTEvpO that space. #LASmedical https://t.co/QUI0hVT1HG |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ Let’s get started with our first question! #LASMedical https://t.co/RWsujZGqWE |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ @ShereesePubHlth Hi Shereese! #blockchain is so interesting! #LASMedical |
 | Loren Deutsch 😷 @lorenlas1 RT @LAS_Inc_: Let’s get started with our first question! #LASMedical https://t.co/RWsujZGqWE |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @LAS_Inc_ I sat with @jamesfbrogan, a med student specializing in #blockchain. Great conference #lasmedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba RT @LAS_Inc_: Let’s get started with our first question! #LASMedical https://t.co/RWsujZGqWE |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ @ShereesePubHlth @jamesfbrogan Fascinating! @jamesfbrogan, we would love to know more about what it means to be a med student focusing on #blockchain! #LASMedical |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @Jim_TheRocktor @LAS_Inc_ @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan What about high stakes exams? Enlighten me, doc. I thought all med school exams were high stakes #LASMedical |
| Loren Deutsch 😷 @lorenlas1 @LAS_Inc_ Hi it’s Loren. Late arrival!! #LASmedical |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ @Jim_TheRocktor @ShereesePubHlth @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan What do you think the purpose of these exams was? Did they fulfill that purpose? #LASMedical |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ @lorenlas1 Hi Loren! Welcome to the chat! #LASMedical |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ @ShereesePubHlth @Jim_TheRocktor @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan Great question, @ShereesePubHlth! High-stakes basically means the results inform big decisions—a longer definition can be found here: https://t.co/15r3OHqjfa #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba Thanks, @LAS_Inc_ High-Stakes Test Definition https://t.co/lJNTLaceay #LASMedical https://t.co/aP5ZUzF0Zi |
| Loren Deutsch 😷 @lorenlas1 Perfectionism and procrastination, neither works well in MedEd #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @LAS_Inc_ @Jim_TheRocktor @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan So the "high stakes" determines rank, field placement, residencies, i suppose? #LASMedical |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @Jim_TheRocktor @LAS_Inc_ @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan I once kidded with my #OBGyn that I'd better not find out he was that "C" student who just got by. His feelings were hurt. That said, can bias be injected into exams? #LASMedical |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ @Jim_TheRocktor @ShereesePubHlth @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan by definition “high-stakes” exams would be the #USMLE step exams, and the shelf exams, which do play a role in residency decisions, though i certainly take your point that all tests feel high stakes #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @Jim_TheRocktor @LAS_Inc_ @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan No, doc. Don't we always want to be the best? A friend told me once that he was only concerned with pass/fail but as a patient, I'd like to know my doctor was a good, very engaged student #LASmedical https://t.co/FPOoAzruts |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ I’m going to toss out our second question for tonight’s chat! #LASMedical https://t.co/azCyvHbF9M |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba As they should be #LASMedical |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ Absolutely. I would argue that exams are inherently biased in favor of those who can afford all of the best preparatory materials/have ample time for preparation (and aren’t working or caring for someone in that time). #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba I'd always assumed so. #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba RT @LAS_Inc_: Absolutely. I would argue that exams are inherently biased in favor of those who can afford all of the best preparatory materials/have ample time for preparation (and aren’t working or caring for someone in that time). #LASMedical |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ @ShereesePubHlth @Jim_TheRocktor @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan There are a fair number of schools moving to pass/fail in those first two years to address this problem—but then the board exams come along! And then clerkships! Never ending assessment. #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba RT @LAS_Inc_: @ShereesePubHlth @Jim_TheRocktor @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan There are a fair number of schools moving to pass/fail in those first two years to address this problem—but then the board exams come along! And then clerkships! Never ending assessment. #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba T2 This is an interesting question because if you look at statistics, over-achievers fair well in school, but less so afterward. I often think those who have to work harder appreciate that struggle and can become very good doctors. #LASMedical |
 | PACIO @Pacio_io RT @ShereesePubHlth: @LAS_Inc_ I sat with @jamesfbrogan, a med student specializing in #blockchain. Great conference #lasmedical |

| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ @ShereesePubHlth Absolutely! And I think your previous question about bias remains really relevant here—sometimes students struggle for reasons that have nothing to do with their ability level #LASMedical |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ Here’s Q3 for tonight’s chat! #LASmedical https://t.co/RlonNZTV6t |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @LAS_Inc_ I had a conversation with a surgeon today, who touched on this. Burnout is a real problem already, according to him but when other forces are at work, the mental wellness of the student is jeopardized. #LASMedical |
| Loren Deutsch 😷 @lorenlas1 @LAS_Inc_ Not trying to generalize but I think there are often categories associated with test taking struggles #LASMedical |
 | Nathan Grunewald MD MBA FACS @NathanGrunewald @ShereesePubHlth @Jim_TheRocktor @LAS_Inc_ @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan Urology has moved away from high stakes recertification examinations with focus on life-long learning. Take a test, figure out deficiencies, supplement knowledge gaps. It's about understanding and application, not pure memorization. #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @Jim_TheRocktor @LAS_Inc_ @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan Don't encourage him, Dr. Grunewald. #LASMedical https://t.co/X27svwkKWr |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ YES THIS IS EXACTLY IT I literally can’t agree strongly enough. #LASMedical |
| Nathan Grunewald MD MBA FACS @NathanGrunewald @ShereesePubHlth @Jim_TheRocktor @LAS_Inc_ @AcademicEM @jamesfbrogan Sorry...couldn't help myself...[insert a famous @ShereesePubHlth bitmoji] ;) #LASMedical |
| Loren Deutsch 😷 @lorenlas1 @LAS_Inc_ Some students struggle with the preparation and cultivating a realistic and effective process while some have difficulty with the actual test even if their fund of knowledge is deep #LASMedical |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ This is wonderful! That model has a lot of similarities with how we approach learning at #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba Riddle me this. At the end of the day, we want to optimize care & outcomes. That said, why would pass/fail even be an option? #LASMedical @Jim_TheRocktor |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ RT @lorenlas1: @LAS_Inc_ Some students struggle with the preparation and cultivating a realistic and effective process while some have difficulty with the actual test even if their fund of knowledge is deep #LASMedical |
| Nathan Grunewald MD MBA FACS @NathanGrunewald @ShereesePubHlth @Jim_TheRocktor Likely related to ease of assessment by the assessors. #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @Jim_TheRocktor Shouldn't learning be immersive and segmented in terms of at what depth we comprehend. Pass/fail just says. "I get the gist of it" #LASMedical |

| Nathan Grunewald MD MBA FACS @NathanGrunewald @lorenlas1 @LAS_Inc_ Sometimes it is just pure poor question design which prevents test takers from understanding question/answer. It is quite difficult to create high quality, unambiguous, clear single answer questions. #LASMedical |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ @ShereesePubHlth @Jim_TheRocktor The other potential argument is that you want learners to focus on truly developing fund of knowledge in a way that works for them for their [specialty/interest/etc] and pass/fail as opposed to scores allows more latitude for that. #LASMedical |

| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ And here’s our final question for tonight’s #LASMedical chat: https://t.co/ASIWXVUxSf |
| Loren Deutsch 😷 @lorenlas1 @NathanGrunewald @LAS_Inc_ Totally agree! And sometimes it’s challenging for students to identify the key information from the distracting information or they don’t have a process to narrow the field and eliminate distractors.#LASmedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @LAS_Inc_ @Jim_TheRocktor I always thought verbal essays were a better exam model. You'd know if the information was comprehended & also if the student understands application of what was taught. #LASMedical |

| Nathan Grunewald MD MBA FACS @NathanGrunewald @ShereesePubHlth @Jim_TheRocktor Not necessarily, Pass/Fail can mean a student passes if they answer 50% correctly or 99%. It's about a set point with each "test". #LASMedical |

| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba T3 I would use verbal essay exam and ask students to write at least one case scenario. #LASMedical https://t.co/cwGNXnEbn9 |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ Ooh, I love the idea of having students write their own cases!! #assessment #LASMedical #meded |
| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ I would lean toward more open book scenarios—I want to know if a student can use logic/follow a thought process, not whether they can regurgitate a fact #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @LAS_Inc_ Exploring someone's writing can help you understand how they process what is taught. If they don't do well, it's foundational in steering them in the right direction for next time #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @LAS_Inc_ I love logic and reasoning type exams. You can tell a lot about a person from their reasoning #LASMedical |

| Loren Academic Services, Inc. (LAS) @LAS_Inc_ Thank you so much, everyone, for joining us tonight!! What an interesting conversation! We hope to see you back with us in future weeks for the #LASMedical chat. |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba Well eventually it ends. When was the last time you had to sit for an exam? #LASMedical |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba Great chatting. Have a great weekend everyone #LASMedical https://t.co/cYSzAT8NhB |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @Jim_TheRocktor Also something I'd assumed #LASMedical |
