AB Little is known about how taking a leave of absence is associated with medical students’ successful placement into graduate medical education (GME). While Black, Hispanic, and Indigenous students are more likely than their White peers to take a leave of absence from medical school, whether leave of absence differentially mediates GME placement by race and ethnicity in unknown. We examined the association between leave of absence and placement into GME by race and ethnicity.
