2024 Match by the numbers: a slideshow

Key figures from the National Resident Matching Program.

March is Match month, and the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) publishes figures about applicants and where they will train.

The 2024 Match had a record number of applicants registered, with increases in international medical graduates and osteopathic seniors over last year, according to NRMP.

“The NRMP is proud to deliver the results of another successful Main Residency Match, and we congratulate all future physicians and training programs on this momentous occasion,” NRMP President and CEO Donna L. Lamb, DHSc, MBA, BSN, said in a news release. “We are especially proud of applicants this year, many of whom began medical school the fall before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and had to quickly adapt to and thrive in a radically changed academic and training landscape. Their experiences and success speak to a remarkable resilience and dedication they will carry with them into practice.”

This slideshow presents some key numbers about the 2024 Match. All data come from NRMP.
