OTOLARYNGOLOGY MATCH REPORT - January 2003

 

COMPARATIVE STATISTICS

This match presents data for the last 13 administrations of the OLMP match. The decade of the 1990's showed a downward trend in number of applicants submitting rank lists while the number of positions offered and filled remained consistent. CAS participation and the number submitting rank lists has been stable since the new decade began. USMLE score averages for those matched remain high. The vacancy rate remains very low.
