Medical school selection is a sociohistorical embedded activity: A comparison of five countries

20248 citationsOpen accessStellenbosch University

Abstract

In conclusion, medical school selection practices are firmly embedded in history, values, societal expectations and stakeholder beliefs, which vary by context. More comparisons, working from the position of acknowledging and respecting differences, would extend knowledge further and enable consideration of what permits and hinders change in different contexts.
