Impact of previous clinical skills experience
Fifteen (17.0%) students were peer tutors at the time of assessment. This means that they have been also trained in clinical skills procedures. Peer tutors had significantly higher total OSCE score at the first assessment than the other students (95.3% vs. 88.3%, p=0.001). At the second testing peer tutors did not have significantly higher total OSCE score (96.5% vs. 91.3%, p=0.062). Peer tutors had higher mean OSCE scores for each clinical skill prior and after the clerkship. The results are shown in Table 1.
