要約:The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has resulted in many changes to medical education, including the site and mode of teaching, conducting of examinations and a shift towards prioritising the mastery of clinical skills relevant to infection control. Hence, Ng et al.’s suggestions on how to maximise learning in preparation for the final year medical school examinations piqued our interest.1 As the pandemic becomes endemic, some of these changes emphasised in the delivery of education are likely to stay, perhaps longer than expected when they were first implemented as interim measures at the height of the pandemic. Furthermore, these changes have impacted medical students at all levels, including students who had begun their educational journeys during the pandemic itself (“COVIDgeneration” medical students, as we identify ourselves). In this letter, we propose additional strategies that may be of utility to younger medical students and their educators (Fig. 1).
