Entry of US medical school graduates into family practice residencies: 1990-1991 and ten-year summary.

Abstract:

:This is the tenth report prepared by the American Academy of Family Physicians on the percentage of each medical school's graduates who entered family practice residency programs. Approximately 10.7% of the 15,433 graduates of United States medical schools between July 1989 and June 1990 were first-year residents in family practice in October 1990. This compares to 10.8% in the previous year. The Mountain region reported the highest percentage of medical school graduates who were first-year residents in family practice programs in October 1990; the Middle Atlantic and New England regions continued with the lowest percentages. Medical school graduates from publicly funded medical schools were nearly twice as likely to be first-year residents in family practice in October 1990 as were graduates from privately funded schools. The percentages for each medical school have varied substantially from year to year in the 10 years that the AAFP has reported this information. The average percentage for each medical school for the last 10 years, as well as the cumulative percentage for each medical school, are reported.
