In the "brain drain" discussion, it would be informative to give statistics on the percentages of the population in Iran that have various levels of education, and compare those to international statistics. -- Beland 09:02, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Good suggestion, but hard to find.--Zereshk 04:17, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

While admission into the medical schools is extremely competitive, I doubt the mentioned number (under 100) is correct for Tehran. The medical schools in Tehran together accept a lot more than 100 students in General medicine. Students with ranks 200-300 still have a chance. Also admission into other medical-related fields (nursery, Dentistry, Pharmacology etc) is easier. It could be changed to "under 300 for the MD programs in Tehran". Ghlobe 18:40, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

I think youre right about that.--Zereshk 05:01, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
