Medical Schools Percent Yield

<p>Does anybody have the statistics of the percent yield of the admitted students for each medical schools? Assuming the admissions for most medical schools are very very competitive, I assume most of the percent yield are like greater than 90%? Or, am I wrong?</p>

<p>thanks for any data or commands!</p>

<p>You're wrong. I believe the yield for UCSF (one of the best schools in the country) is only around 60%.</p>

<p>I have no idea what you mean by % yield. </p>

<p>If you mean how many people admitted to medical school actually graduate with an MD, then the % yield is over 95% (if not even higher - >99%) For the most part, most medical schools are going to take the effort to get you through because they have so much invested in your training it doesn't make sense for them to give up on you.</p>

<p>If you mean how many people apply to medical school and end up doctors, then the % is about 50%. </p>

<p>Rates from individual undergraduate schools and how many get accepted, that will like range from any where of 40% of grads of that school on up to 100%. Schools with very high acceptance rates of applicants, likely pre-screen individuals from their institution, only allowing the most competitive students to actually apply, thus raising their acceptance rates.</p>

<p>The usual use of the phrase "yield" is:</p>

<p>Among students who are admitted to your medical school, how many of them matriculate there as opposed to matriculating someplace else?</p>

<p>yes, bluedevilmike, that's my definition.</p>

<p>but, no one has answered my question yet: "Does anybody have the statistics of the percent yield of the admitted students for each medical schools?'</p>

<p>Wow I was way drunk last night and shouldn't have been posting...</p>

<p>OK, I guess medical schools don't release these data since no one here knows the answer to my question...how sad.</p>

<p>Why are you interested?</p>
