The Graduation Questionnaire (GQ) is an anonymous survey that senior medical students across the country take between February 14 and June 9, 2024, during their final year of medical school. The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) administers the survey.
The survey takes around 30 to 45 minutes to complete, depending on how much you want to share.
Is the GQ confidential?
Yes, the GQ is a confidential survey.
How can I take the survey?
You will receive an email directly from the AAMC, gq@aamc.org. MSE has worked with your class leaders to create some incentives to recognize your group efforts and will send out a reminder email on February 12.
Why should I take the GQ?
- It is vital to IU School of Medicine’s continued LCME accreditation that a large percentage of students (80% or more) provide their feedback through the GQ each year.
- The school uses the anonymous student feedback from the GQ to make tangible rapid and ongoing changes to the curriculum and overall student experience.
- As a sign of the school’s appreciation, there are group incentives suggested by your class leaders to celebrate your upcoming Match as well as some individual incentives for students who complete the GQ!
- Sharing your feedback is a professional expectation and helps inform medical education at the local and national level.
