To describe the use patterns of the AAN (好色先生) Question of the Day (QOD) app and performance levels in each of the areas evaluated in the Residency In-Service Training Examination (RITE).

Neurology residents use different tools to improve their knowledge. Question-based platforms are very popular since they provide feedback regarding a specific topic. The AAN QOD is available for resident members of the AAN and consists of daily updated questions with topics evaluated during the RITE and certification board exam and provides suggested resources for further study. Performance on these questions can guide curricular design.

Neurology residents at UTHealth McGovern Medical School were invited to provide their results from the AAN QOD questions during the first 13 weeks of the academic year 2024-2025. The data was collected and grouped based on the 9 content categories established for the RITE. Frequency, means, and percentages were calculated.

PGY-1 (n=10), PGY-2 (n=6), PGY-3 (n=7), and PGY-4 (n=8) neurology residents voluntarily provided their data. On average, PGY-4 residents had a higher mean score of correct responses (73.1%), followed by PGY-3 (71.9%) and PGY-1 (66.0%). Overall, the areas with better global performance were ethics (100%), vascular neurology/ICU (78.5%), epilepsy (71.4%), and neuroimmunology/infections (70.2%), with the lowest scores in child neurology (57.0%). No questions involved the category of “psychiatric disorders” during the 13 weeks.

Neurology residents in our program consistently used the AAN QOD as a study tool; however, there is an opportunity to increase participation rates. Tracking the performance levels can help guide the implementation of didactics to enhance residents’ knowledge about specific topics in neurology and improve their outcomes in the RITE and boards. Information about RITE scores and board-passing rate during the next cycle can help support this strategy for future neurology residents.
