    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Student Assessment
    • Skill Development

    Background:

    • Tutorial programs are integral to medical education.
    • Assessing student progress in key skills is crucial.
    • Understanding the relationship between self-perception and objective achievement is important.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare medical students' self-ratings with tutor ratings over two years.
    • To examine the changes in perceived and actual skills during a tutorial program.
    • To investigate the correlation between student self-assessment, tutor assessment, and academic achievement.

    Main Methods:

    • Longitudinal study involving medical students over two academic years.
    • Self-assessment and tutor assessment of Knowledge, Reasoning, Communication, and Interpersonal Skills.

  • Analysis of rating changes and correlations with achievement data.

    • Main Results:

    • Student and tutor ratings showed initial similarity in Year 1, diverging in Year 2.
    • Both self- and tutor ratings increased from Year 1 to Year 2.
    • Self-ratings of skills were independent of achievement, while tutor ratings correlated with achievement.

    Conclusions:

    • Student self-perceptions of skill development may not align with objective performance metrics.
    • Tutor assessments appear to be a more reliable indicator of actual student achievement in tutorial settings.
    • Further investigation into the learning goals of tutorials and their impact on self-assessment is warranted.
