[edit] Statistics

Please help improve this article or section by expanding it.
Further information might be found on the talk page or at requests for expansion. (January 2007)

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)

[edit] Ranking

I don't think iritn is a good reference for the rankings. For ranking based on ISI papers and density w.r.t. faculty, check: http://www.ipm.ac.ir/IPM/homepage/WorldNews/11.pdf on page: http://www.ipm.ac.ir/IPM/homepage/worldnews.html from sharghnewspaper's (www.sharghnewspaper.com) 22/3/1385. even better is to find a reference in isna, MSRT's site, or irandoc.ac.ir.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Science Iran.jpg

Image:Science Iran.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
