Description

Studies the relationship between medical student career intention at entry to medical school and secondary school decile rating or size of the town of origin. Hypothesises that students from low decile schools and/or a rural origin were more likely to signal an interest in general practice and other specialty areas more amenable to practice in rural locales.
