There is no published data on what makes a good AA student – multiple studies exist in this regard for anesthesiology residents and medical students. The Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) and the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) have shown to have some correlation with student success in other health professions. There is no data to suggest that they can indicate potential success or academic problems during AA school. As such, this study evaluated the impact of these standardized test scores and student success in both the preclinical and clinical curricula at the Emory AA program.\u003Cbr>Methods: A retrospective analysis of MCAT scores and GRE scores was performed. 2-tailed Pearson coefficients were calculated to see if there was a relationship between higher MCAT and GRE scores and performance in our program.\u003Cbr>Results: 2-tailed Pearson coefficients showed a moderately strong correlation between MCAT scores and our AA program’s science curriculum. There was a weak correlation as well between GRE scores here. The correlation dropped slightly for the MCAT and performance during our clinical curriculum, and a similar drop was noted for the GRE.\u003Cbr>Discussion: Our study shows that the MCAT appears to more strongly correlated with better performance in both the science curriculum of our program and also with our clinical program. The study likely implies that the MCAT appears to be a better gauge as to how a student will do in an AA program in comparison to the GRE. Further studies are needed to understand how to appropriately admit students who will successfully complete the rigorous AA program curriculum both at Emory and beyond.\u003Cbr>Keywords: admission metrics, certified anesthesiologist assistant, anesthesia care team, student success, standardized test scores |\n| --- |\n| Introduction\u003Cbr>The Anesthesiologist Assistant (AA) career is a rapidly expanding health professions career that has seen tremendous popularity in the United States over the last several years. AAs are advanced practice providers who work in the anesthesia care team model, providing highly skilled anesthetic are to patients in a variety of settings.1 AA schools are affiliated with national schools of medicine and offer a masters-level degree to their students, and they are seeing significant growth in terms of applications and interest.1,2 As such, more programs are also being developed. All of these programs have demanding basic science and clinical training curricula that work to prepare students to enter the anesthesia care team. The curriculum for AAs in the USA spans 24–28 months, and the program is divided into didactic coursework and clinical training. The didactic phase includes subjects such as pharmacology, physiology, anatomy, and patient monitoring, equipping students with a solid foundation in medical knowledge and anesthesia principles.
