  • Title: Number of applicants and examination frequency at the dental schools in Sweden 1968-1992.
    Author: Sjöström O.
    Journal: Swed Dent J; 1995; 19(5):219-24. PubMed ID: 8614903.
    Abstract:
    The number of applicants to the dental schools in Sweden 1968-1987 has been documented. It was shown that there was a large number of applicants up to 1980. Then the number dropped dramatically. It was at its lowest in 1985 but increased slowly after this date. The number of applicants was related to other variables: the birth rate, education capacity, real wage and unemployment. A correlation and time series analysis shows that only real wage has an impact on the number of applicants. The number of applicants has also been related to the examination rate. The results show that the examination rate decreases when the application rate is going down.
