Key Points

To assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on medical education, student attitudes, digital learning practices, and mental health after one year of disrupted schooling.
Purposive cross-sectional online survey administered across 49 medical faculties within the Association of Indonesian Private Medical Faculty from February to May 2021 (N=7,949 active students).
Assessed digital device skills, e-learning feasibility, educational continuity, future career plans, and mental health symptoms using univariate and bivariate statistical analyses.
Although 74% of students agreed e-learning was viable and 58.7% reported adequate digital skills, educational delays affected 32.6% overall and 47.5% in the clinical training phase.
The pandemic triggered financial hardships for 28.1% of respondents (causing 2.1% to postpone studies) and led 52.2% to worry about restricted opportunities for medical specialty training.
Psychological distress was widespread, with nearly 40% of respondents reporting anxiety symptoms and approximately one-third reporting symptoms of sadness, depression, or hopelessness.
