Abstract
In 1992 the Association of Residents in Radiation Oncology (ARRO) cond ucted its ninth annual survey of all residents in training. The survey identified perceived strengths and shortcomings of training. Factors influencing the choice of Radiation Oncology as a medical specialty we re identified. Residents raised concerns over the adequacy and prepara tion of training. Factors influencing the decision to enter private pr actice or academic medicine were also identified. Future surveys are p lanned to expand this important database.
