Survey says SOM graduates are pleased with their medical education

Every year the  Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) surveys all graduating medical students across the country.  The Graduation Questionnaire is an important tool for medical schools to use in program evaluation and to improve the medical student experience.

The results of the AAMC Graduation Questionnaire for the University of South Carolina School of Medicine  Class of 2010 was that  98.7% of the class “agreed” or “strongly agreed” that they were satisfied with their overall medical education.  This compares to 87.4% nationally.

“This speaks volumes about the level of commitment our faculty and staff have to ensuring that our students receive a first-rate medical education,” says Richard Hoppmann, MD, Dean. “We are grateful to know that our students are pleased with their experience here.”
