ABSTRACT

Among the several programs that allow access to medical specialization in Chile, the National Health Services System Entrance Contest (CONISS) is held annually for newly graduated physicians, which has a high number of applicants. The academic qualifications expressed as National Medical Qualification (CMN) are the main item of the scoring system. We reviewed the total scores and the CMN of the different medical specialization programs that exist in the country, which constitutes novel and relevant information for future medical graduates interested in applying to the program. In addition, the quotas of the different programs are reported, expressed as total, free, and used quotas.
