How does the MSPE process work? Spring : Complete online MSPE Questionnaire - Done

May: Mandatory Application Process Meeting - Now May 29: Issued ERAS token by SAO to Mednet account – make sure there are no junk

mail filters set • All students (early match too) register on ERAS

June-August: Meet with Dean: Appointments will be scheduled by SAO and assigned to you…

if you cannot make your assigned appointment time you will be rescheduled at the end of the list. Again, don’t worry, every student will meet with a Dean and have an MSPE completed and released at the exact same moment, so it neither harms nor helps you to meet early vs. late.

How does the MSPE process work? July-September: Complete ERAS application, finalize CV and Personal Statement, begin to

submit to programs. August-September: MSPE Editing Begins

• You are notified by SAO when your MSPE is ready for review… again, we will ensure that you all have MSPEs completed before the deadline so do not worry about this!

September 15: Last day for faculty to submit evaluations to be included in MSPE, so schedule

your Sub-I’s accordingly if you want them included. October 1: MSPEs released automatically to all programs (National Deadline).

What does an MSPE Look Like?

• All Medical Schools follow the AAMC guidelines to format and submit their MSPE.

• All have the same headings and content.

For review of the guidelines: https://www.aamc.org/download/139542/data/mspe.pdf

What goes into the MSPE?

• Unique characteristics (based on your input) • Summary of academic progress (including

gaps or leaves of absence) • Years 1&2 evaluations summarized in 2

paragraphs – Does NOT include exam scores

• All of Year 3 evaluation comments (verbatim) • Summary paragraph written by Dr. Miller

What Is Removed from the Evaluation?

• PDA logs • Attendance (Unless it is an issue noted within the narrative of

the evaluation) • Nomination for a LOD (If you received one, it will be noted in

bold at the end of the evaluation) • Exam scores or percentiles • References to graded presentations • Physician/evaluator names • Websites and journal citations • Dates of Clerkships (the MSPE is written in chronological

order)

Evaluations and the MSPE • Evaluations go in verbatim-remember, this is an evaluation not a

recommendation • The only way to have comments revised on your MSPE is to have

the Clerkship Director submit new comments on MyCourses. ***THIS MUST BE DONE WITHIN SIX WEEKS OF YOUR EVALUATION BEING SUBMITTED TO MyCourses*** – All Sub-I and revised comments must be submitted to the SAO

on ESS by September 15 in order to be included on the MSPE – Jason and Meredith will not be able to make revisions or alter

your evaluations in any way during the MSPE review process • Questions or concerns about evaluations should be discussed with

Dr. Miller, Jason, or Meredith before approaching Clerkship Director

Scheduling: Adding an Elective MyCourses Medstudent webpage Current Students Curriculum Clinical Curriculum

• Adding an elective: – All elective adds must be done 30 days before the

start of the elective. – Contact the student coordinator to see if there is

availability. • Externs are not reflected on MyCourses roster, so even

though it appears there is space for you, the elective may be full.

– Add yourself to the waitlist for that time in MyCourses.

– The coordinator will approve the addition and the course will show up on your schedule.

Scheduling: Dropping an Elective

• Dropping an elective: – You can drop a course from your schedule in

MyCourses 30 days before the start of the elective.

Lessons and advice from past grads…

Some advice… • No matter how smart or how well-respected someone is, they

don’t know you. Stay true to yourself, take your time deciding, and don’t show all your cards at once.

• Pick a specialty because it makes you happy-not because someone thinks it is more prestigious or just because you would match in it.

• Interview lots of places and meet lots of people-this process helped tremendously for fellowship applying

• Make UCLA look good and protect our reputation for future applicants! Go to your interviews, never cancel last minute, show up on time, and always be polite.

• Enthusiasm and sincerity worked better than anything else on my application!

• Call us! We are here to help!
