FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH DROPOUT IN MEDICAL EDUCATION: A LITERATURE REVIEW

A truly mixed bag of papers for this edition. There does seem to be very little at the moment in the journals about the threat of political change to further influence medical training and education.

I see little in the current discussions that fill me with any confidence that medical education will not continue its steady decline following the last disastrous Government-inspired changes.
