Topic: Transition to Residency

Rationale
The USMLE Step 1 Examination's transition to a Pass/Fail grading system in January 2022, followed by a similar change in the COMLEX Level 1 Examination later that year, marked a seismic shift with far-reaching implications across the
entire spectrum of medical education and practice. Among the most immediate and palpable impacts of this change, the transition to residency, stands out due to the removal of a numerical distinction utilized in highly competitive residency
applications. This shift also prompted a rethinking of the curricular structure and transition milestones in medical schools. Medical schools, which have invested heavily on preparing students for a high-stakes, numerical score-based national
licensing examination, will need to reprioritize its approach to promote a broader range of competencies and skills.
