Limitations: No official national list of medical schools or Doctor of Medicine programmes was found (Ministry of Education lists universities only; the Education and Training Authority site was not located). Eight programmes were confirmed from university websites; many university sites are script-rendered or unreachable, so most public medical schools (including Addis Ababa, Jimma, Mekelle, Hawassa) remain unresolved, and private medical colleges were not researched. No school has dated current-cycle admission evidence, so all are 'not_verified'.
