Second, how do non\u2010enrolled medical candidates influence the global allocation system and generate waves of dissatisfaction?<\/jats:p><jats:p>The results show that students who do not succeed in entering medicine register in other programmes, such as pharmacy, veterinary medicine and dental studies, generating a first wave of dissatisfaction. Because students who are not placed in medicine occupy a large share of the places available in those other programmes, the wave of dissatisfaction propagates, with students being pushed to other programmes, especially biology and biochemistry. This process has also been analysed from a spatial perspective. Apparently, when students are competing to obtain a study place in a programme with prestige and good professional career perspectives such as medicine moving to a more peripheral region becomes more frequent.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/ejed.12042","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,16]],"date-time":"2013-08-16T13:10:36Z","timestamp":1376658636000},"page":"144-158","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Waves of (Dis)Satisfaction: Effects of the <i>Numerus Clausus<\/i> system in <scp>P<\/scp>ortugal"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"49","author":[{"given":"Madalena","family":"Fonseca","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Diana","family":"Dias","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Carla","family":"S\u00e1","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Alberto","family":"Amaral","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_12_2_1","volume-title":"O Ensino Superior pela M\u00e3o da Economia","author":"Amaral A.","year":"2002"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2929.2006.02561.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_4_1","volume-title":"Social and Economic Conditions of Student Life in Portugal","author":"DGES, Ministry of Science, Technology and Higher Education","year":"2005"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_5_1","volume-title":"Indicators of offer and demand","author":"DGES, Ministry of Science, Technology and Higher Education","year":"2010"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/1-4020-2835-0_4"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1069072703011002001"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/13583880802700040"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_9_1","first-page":"81","volume-title":"Managing Higher Education Diversity in a Climate of Public Sector Reform","author":"Marginson S.","year":"1998"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/0305764X.2010.549456"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/03075071003725343"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_12_1","first-page":"13","volume-title":"Tertiary Education for the Knowledge Society.
