The 2007 CDIM Survey, led by Dr. Steven Durning and the Research Committee, highlights the perspectives of faculty members on various aspects of Internal Medicine clerkships. It presents data on job satisfaction, meeting frequency, assessment practices, and the demographics of participants. With an impressive response rate of 82%, it demonstrates strong engagement from institutional members. Key findings indicate that a significant majority require students to take NBME exams, while also revealing concerns about job burnout and frustrations impacting retention in the field.
