Undergraduate Medical Education "Fast Facts"

Data for "Fast Facts" are derived from the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) Annual Medical School Questionnaire. The questionnaire is sent annually to the deans of all LCME-accredited medical schools with enrolled students. Each year, the questionnaire is reviewed by AMA staff and attempts are made to verify information and obtain missing data.

The "Fast Facts" tables illustrate trend data for current topics of interest within undergraduate medical education. When available, data reflects responses, in five-year increments, from academic years 1989-1990 through 2009-2010.
