My wife went through MATCH 2 years ago, so I'm very familiar with the data. There is extensive data backing this: https://www.nrmp.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/MRM-Results_and-Data_2021.pdf https://www.nrmp.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/MRM-Results_... Page 13 has a nice graphical summary. NRMP is extremely good at communicating loads of data, but omitting some key facts that would support wide-spread reform of residency. They do a very good job of highlighting the places where things are working while downplaying the places where things aren't working. > Graduates of some foreign medical schools do apply for US residency matches but the numbers are small. About 1/3 of residency matches are actually foreign trained. That's not a small number.
