Independent Student Analysis Survey
by MMSA VSI 05 Jan '26

05 Jan '26

Hi everyone! I hope everyone had a great winter break! I'm reaching out to share the attached MMSA report from the 2024-2025 Independent Student Analysis (ISA). This report is a result of all the feedback we collected on the ISA Survey last year, so we'd like to thank everyone who participated last year! As a refresher, the ISA is a key component of the accreditation process for medical schools in Canada, completion of which is mandated by the Committee on Accreditation of Canadian Medical Schools (CACMS). The ISA survey focuses on several key aspects of our medical school experience, namely curriculum, student support services, learning environment, and facilities. It is student-led and the best opportunity to share feedback with the college regarding any concerns from the student body about the medical school experience. In the past, we've brought up components of the curriculum or student-life that have been, or are currently being addressed. Recent examples include changes to the Clinical Skills and Population Health curriculum, renovation of our lounge space, and funding for third-party study materials in clerkship. The Max Rady College of Medicine is set to undergo its accreditation in 2027. Student feedback plays a large role in their evaluation, and this year’s ISA report will be a key resource for them to ensure that feedback from the entire student body is heard. Because of this, it is crucial that everyone fills out the survey — This survey will be one of the most impactful sources of feedback that you will be able to provide during your degree, as it will be used both by UGME to prepare for the upcoming accreditation visit, as well as by the accreditors from CACMS as part of the accreditation process. The upcoming 2025-2026 ISA Survey will be launched at varying times for each class starting January 2026, and will follow the following timeline: Med 1s and Med 2s: March 2nd – March 31st, 2026. Med 3s: February 2nd – March 31st, 2026. Med 4s: January 5th – February 27th, 2026. There will be dedicated time blocked off for every class, either during the pre-clerkship curriculum, PDC, or TTR, to ensure that everyone has adequate time to complete the survey. The dates and times are as follows: Med 1s: Fri, March 6th, from 14:00-14:50 Med 2s: Fri, March 6th, from 13:00-13:50 Med 3s: Thu, March 19th, from 13:00-14:50 Med 4s: Mon, Feb 9th, from 12:00 to 12:50 A unique survey link will be sent out to each of you via email from messages-noreply(a)simplesurvey.com on the first day of the survey period. If you can not find the email in your inbox, check your junk folder. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the report or the ISA process! Thank you!

Thank you for the delicious cookies and lovely note, Med 1's! Welcome back! I hope you all had a restful break after a bit of a wild end to Fall Term. Ps. We are working on some options for cancelled sessions and will update you as soon as we know what kind of scheduling magic is possible. I promise we will not be adding these in the next few weeks (You are going to do great! Hang in there...) but also will attempt to not delay your content too much. Pps. Whose perfect writing is this on the card/box?? 10/10.
