Medical school types by MCAT, Career types, and Locations
The medical students in each medical school type were distributed according to birth income levels. Those with a red shift have birth counties with lower income levels. Those with a violet and ultraviolet shift are high income intensified.
Match up the DNA pattern to see who fits where. The middle ground is seen in the All US Grads category.
Looks like "All rural careers" matches to a lower MCAT pattern, similar to where more rural, older, and lower income types with lower MCAT scores are attending medical schools.
IM specialists have a pattern with much more violet and ultraviolet.
Recent US MD Grad physicians (n=203,627) were matched to medical schools and to birth county and to birth county income levels in 1969, the approximate time of birth. These 1969 per capita income levels were expressed in 1989 dollars. About $9000 or below is roughly a lower income quartile and $13000 and up is a top income quartile. Atypical outliers were excluded from consideration leaving 109 to compare. Those excluded were distributional types such as Duluth, Mercer, and West Coast schools. Other atypical schools included those without a broad representative national pattern including DC schools, historically black schools, schools in PR and HI, the military school, UMKC, and NEOUCOM (early admits)
