Clerkships Most-Included Topics at Medical Schools
The number of medical schools including a given topic in a clerkship in academic levels 3 and 4 is visible in the tooltip when you hover over a bar.
A total of MD-granting medical schools participated in the Curriculum Inventory.
This report shows the number of MD-granting medical schools reporting the most common event titles in the Curriculum Inventory. While other elements of the Curriculum Inventory can be used to understand content more generally, an event's title often provides the most direct description of the content covered in each event. DO-granting medical schools are not included in this report due to a lack of data.
