As medical education has become something of a buyer's market, a Midwest medical school and a Texas university are resorting to advertising for students. The Medical College of Ohio in Toledo has taken out ads in 23 Ohio college newspapers urging premed students to consider applying. Meanwhile, the University of Texas System, in a broader appeal, is running TV ads urging young Texans to choose health careers. University of Texas officials hope their ad campaign will help stem a decline in enrollments in the state's medical and related schools, the same trend observed nationally for the past 15 years. Medical-school enrollments declined 37% nationwide between 1974 and 1988, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges.

“Is it possible to select medical students scientifically?” asked Mary D. Salter in a 1942 journal article that examined the Medical College Aptitude Test (MCAT). Salter, a Lecturer in Psychology at the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Toronto answered affirmatively, pointing out that “scientific selection of students would greatly reduce the wastage of time, money, and effort involved when students fail.”

AbstractThe main lines ofthe program designed for the interpretation of ECGs, developed in Padova by LADSEB-CNR with the cooperation of the Medical School of the University of Padova are described. In particular, the strategies used for (i) morphology recognition, (ii) measurement evaluation, and (iii) linguistic decision making are illustrated. The main aspect which discerns this program in comparison with other approaches to computerized electrocardiography is its ability of managing the imprecision in both the measurements and the medical knowledge through the use of fuzzy-set methodologies. So-called possibility distributions are used to represent ill-defined parameters as well as threshold limits for diagnostic criteria. In this way, smooth conclusions are derived when the evidence does not support a crisp decision. The influence of the CSE project on the evolution of the Padova program is illustrated.
