Accurate and efficient self-assessment is a critical skill for medical students to develop as part of their professional development. Along with clinical training reform at Fukushima Medical University, rubric-based student self-assessment and teacher assessment of students' performance using our proposed assessment tool, which includes several aspects of clinical skills and abilities, was initiated to improve the clinical clerkship process. To investigate how students identified their weaknesses and strengths, we analyzed the results of 119 fourth-year medical students' self-assessment and corresponding teacher assessment. Our study revealed substantial consistency between student self-assessment and teacher assessment, despite some overestimation and underestimation in student self-assessments. Students who incorrectly assess themselves require a variety of feedback to increase their self-efficacy and self-confidence, as well as to identify their weaknesses.
