title: [Profile of Brazilian medical schools in 1991].
abstract: On hand of an inquiry carried out by Interinstitutional Commission for Evaluation of Medical Education (CINAEM) in 76 medical schools an outline of Brazilian medical education in 1991 was prepared. The positive aspects included active participation in "IDA--Integração Docente-Assistencial" programs, existence of pedagogical support and considerable assistential activity at the school hospitals. There were however also some negative aspects: insufficient research activity of teachers, existence of too many schools, small titular index of teachers and exaggerated clinical practice at the school-hospital. The importance of individual evaluation of each medical school in the future work to be done by CINAEM is emphasized.
