Combined Baccalaureate/Medical Degree Students Match Into Family Medicine Residencies More Than Similar Peers: A Matched Case-Control Study.

Background And Objectives: We sought to evaluate whether the University of New Mexico (UNM) Combined Baccalaureate/Medical Degree (BA/MD) program increases the likelihood that students match into family medicine residencies.

Methods: We used binary logistic regression to predict interest and actual residency match in family medicine. We compared BA/MD participants to similar peers (one-to-one match subject design) and all other students for the nine cohorts of medical students who have matriculated into UNM School of Medicine since the inception of the BA/MD program (medical school matriculation years 2009-2017).
