Council Member Brewer inquires about the distribution of CUNY School of Medicine's primary care graduates, particularly in New York City. Dr. Green explains that while it's difficult to provide exact figures, most graduates tend to stay in New York City.
- 100% of CUNY School of Medicine students are New York State residents
- The school has the highest percentage of in-state students compared to other New York medical schools
- Graduates tend to remain in New York after completing their education

Would that be mostly in New York City or it's just hard to gauge?

It's a little harder to gauge, but mostly New York City is where they I would say.
1:00:31
Okay.
1:00:32
Most our our students, like, unlike others, tend to stay put.
1:00:36
Meaning, they come from the cities I mean, well, we actually have a highest of New York State residents.
1:00:43
Right?
1:00:43
100% of our students are New Yorkers.
1:00:49
Which, I they may have put that in the packet.
1:00:52
There's a paper that shows that, even the next closest of the New York, state schools is 90%.
