The degrees of MD and ChM in British and Irish universities, 1953-70.
About 80% of MBs who proceed to MD or ChM do so within 15 years of obtaining their primary medical qualification. Using this measurement as a yardstick, an attempt is made to draw a valid reflection of the award of thses postgraduate degrees in the twenty university medical schools during the period 1953-70. London produced half as many MDs and ChMs as expected, Oxbridge considerably more and Scotland about half the expected ChMs.
