Career destiny of 550 Americans several years after graduating from a foreign medical school.
A longitudinal study of 550 Americans who took the examination sponsored by the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates in February 1972 after or while attending a foreign medical school has been completed. Ten years following graduation from the foreign school, it was found that 70 members of the original group have never qualified for graduate medical education in the United States and an additional 61 have not become licensed practitioners.
