Exam Policy for Foundations of Patient Care and Professionalism (PAS5003c), Introduction to Medicine I (PAS5010) and Introduction to Medicine II Courses (PAS5020), Advanced Clinical Practicum (PAS5008c)
For this policy, the didactic year is divided into two halves: Summer B/Fall and Spring/Summer A. Failure of three course exams within half of the year or four course exams within the didactic year is considered a severe deficit of knowledge. A student who receives an exam score of less than 70.00 on three exams within one half of the year will be subject to either delay, deceleration or dismissal. A student who receives an exam score of less than 70.00 on four exams within the didactic year will also be subject to either delay, deceleration or dismissal. The decision regarding delay, deceleration or dismissal will be made by the Professional Standards and Promotion Committee.
*Delays may only be approved one time for a maximum of two months in the didactic year.
Students who are subject to a delay will be assigned an Individual Readiness Plan.
