Since US students first started enrolling in the Latin American School of Medicine in the spring of 2001, about 20% of enrolled students have left the program, and 80% have remained enrolled. This rate is exactly comparable to the attrition rate at any medical school in the US.

Throughout medical school, internship, and residency, young doctors are required to take night call, which means going without sleep.
