Medical schools are challenged to attract applicants who will best fit their stated missions, but there are few ways for medical schools to know if they are using the right methods to reach the applicants they seek. Using survey data from medical school aspirants, analyses show that, in terms of usage, the medical school information source cited most was “Medical school Web sites” (59%) and, in terms of value, the Medical School Admissions Requirements (MSAR®) was rated highest for helping aspirants make application decisions.
