Figure 4.

Graph of change in in-training examination (ITE) scores versus volume of admissions and consults for internal medicine (IM) post-graduate year (PGY)-2 residents. The plotted line is the correlation after adjustment for gender, medical school location, volume of encounters in the continuity clinic setting and conference attendance, thus it represents an “average” male graduate of a Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME)-accredited medical school with 68 % correct on ITE-2, 73 core conferences attended as PGY-2, and 145 encounters in continuity clinic.
