Rankings or ratings of American medical schools

[Guest guest]

A medical reference librarian at a hospital told me that they get dozens of

telephone calls for medical school rankings and that these are the only rankings

as of 2011. So this has got to be close to the standards that the hospitals and

other medical employers use when they interview and hire.

The 1910 Flexner report cited s Hopkins as being the top medical school and

then listed Harvard and Michigan and Case Western Reserve as well.
