In 2019 and before the COVID‐19 pandemic, about 68% of our medical students in Japan wished to engage in academic activities abroad. However, in 2020 and during the pandemic, this percentage fell to 35%. We found a significant increase in the number of students wishing to go abroad for studies/training in 2021 than in 2020, taking the percentage to the prepandemic level in 2019.
