Deep dives
Reasons for Differential Attainment Among IMG Trainees
Differential attainment refers to the lower performance and outcomes of international medical graduates (IMGs) compared to UK graduates. The causes of this differential attainment are complex and multifactorial. One factor is the initial challenging period when IMGs arrive in the UK, where they have to navigate through finding basic human needs such as housing, childcare, and schooling while simultaneously adjusting to an unfamiliar healthcare system and language. This overwhelming start can lead to cognitive overload and hinder optimal performance. Additionally, the cultural and language differences faced by IMGs can contribute to disparities in achievement and career progression.
