- Abstract:
- The AAMC partnered with U.S. residency programs in dermatology, general surgery, and internal medicine to offer the supplemental ERAS ® application for the 2022 application cycle. The purpose of the supplemental ERAS application was to: (1) Update the myERAS® application to reflect the current state of residency training. (2) Empower applicants to share more information about themselves using a fair process. (3) Drive holistic review in a high-volume application context. The supplemental ERAS application was administered Sept. 1-30, 2022, and consisted of three sections: past experiences, geographic preferences, and preference signals. (Analysis of a fourth, research-only section of that application, work preferences, is ongoing.) A total of 720 unique programs participated. Some internal medicine programs offered both categorical and preliminary tracks. Participating programs represented all geographic regions, university- and community-affiliated programs, and programs of different sizes: (1) Dermatology (87% participated, 117/135 programs). (2) General surgery - categorical (71% participated, 232/327 programs). (3) Internal medicine - categorical (64% participated, 361/566 programs with categorical tracks). (4) Internal medicine - preliminary (75% participated, 184/246 programs with preliminary tracks). About 83% of applicants to these three specialties submitted the supplemental ERAS application (22,900/27,496). (Applicants can apply to more than one specialty, so percentages may exceed 100.) The demographic composition of the sample was similar to the population of applicants from these specialties (as of January 2022), although slightly fewer Asian applicants to internal medicine (categorical and preliminary) submitted the supplemental application compared with all applicants from internal medicine. (1) Dermatology (93% submitted, 950/1,019 applicants); (2) General surgery - categorical (87% submitted, 3,578/4,115 applicants); (3) Internal medicine - categorical (82% submitted, 15,486/18,986 applicants); (4) Internal medicine - preliminary (74% submitted, 7,802/10,511 applicants).
