How will our COVID experience be factored into the MSPE? Is it generally understood that there was less opportunity to form longitudinal contacts with faculty due to reduced rotation time?

Yes, your MSPE will say that there was a clerkship pause March-July 2020 and will state the number of shortened clerkship weeks. This is the national recommendation for all medical schools. Other schools had the same experience and those students’ MSPEs will reflect those changes as well.
