Specialty Entrance Rates

Understanding the table

The table shows the total number of applicants who applied and entered training in Anesthesiology and the percentage of applicants who entered in Anesthesiology by Step 1 score ranges. The table also shows the number and percentage of applicants who entered training in another specialty, as well as the number and percentage of applicants with no record of entering training. Entrance rate data come from the GME Track Residency Survey, which typically receives a response rate of about 94% (e.g., 94.4% in 2018). Please note that the specialty entrance rate refers to the number of applicants who ultimately entered training in this specialty, not the match or acceptance rate. 

In general, the proportion of applicants who entered Anesthesiology training increased as Step 1 scores increased, and the entrance rates for applicants who failed Step 1 on their first attempt were lower than entrance rates for applicants who passed Step 1 on their first attempt.
