If you are involved in your medical school’s diversity and inclusion efforts, you might be interested to know that the AAMC has published a new report that examines medical school graduation data on gender and students underrepresented in medicine. The “2021 GQ Gender and URiM Reports” breaks down data from the 2021 AAMC Medical School Graduation Questionnaire (GQ) by sex and by race-ethnicity. Medical schools can use this report to compare their students’ experiences to the national data and identify opportunities for improvement.
Individual school-specific data sets, along with the national report, are available on the AAMC Medical School Profile System (MSPS) to medical school deans and the designated student surveys contacts at each school. Contact your institution’s dean or leaders in your student affairs or medical education department to request access to these reports.
