Preceptor with a Mid-Clerkship Feedback Form to complete and discuss with the
student. The preceptor will indicate whether the student’s progress to date is satisfactory
or unsatisfactory, identify the student’s strengths and weakness and suggest a remediation
plan if necessary. (See Mid-Clerkship Feedback Form)

Evaluation Form provided by the Third-Year Clerkship in internal Medicine. The Student

student should then sign the form. The form is then submitted to the clerkship office. (See
Student Evaluation Form)
