The article discusses the causes of hyposcillia (clinical skills deficiency) in third, fourth-, and fifth-year students of the Institute of pediatrics of Ural Medical University after online training during the covid pandemic. The reasons and ways to overcome the problematic aspects of surgery hyposcillia in a medical university are analyzed: to develop a selection system for admission so that people who do not have motivation for medicine do not get into a medical university; not to transfer students with academic debt from course to course.; to grant academic leave only due to illness or some kind of force majeure family circumstances. We need to educate students, not create conditions for them to live an easy life.
