title: [Evaluation of medical faculties in France].
abstract: A "comité national d'évaluation" founded in 1985 scrutinizes the french universities, autonomous but still partly run by the government. So far 17 medical faculties have been examined. Here are presented some remarks on the following points: the selection of the students and the end of the first year and the fate of those who failed; the reinforcement of science teaching for the students eager to go into research or academic medicine; the links binding teaching and research; the international relationships; the impulse of the evaluation on the Faculté.
