Notes: This table presents estimates of the nudge effects on medical students’ intent-to-drop-out by pre-COVID intentions using Eq. (4). Covariates in columns (2), (4), (6) include student-level attributes in Table 1 and college and grade fixed effects. Robust standard errors are clustered at the college-grade level. *** p<0.01, ** p<0.05, * p<0.1.
