Yep. A fair number of folks have to repeat a year or take a year off. This way it captures those people in the graduation rate as well.

Very normal. You'd be surprise how many people get sick in med school and need a year off, or decide to take a research year, or some other EC.
Not necessarily to us tho. If a school is bringing up its 6 year graduation rate, its probably good.
The COCA requires that all schools report board pass rates, residency placement rates, and 6-year graduation rates as part of their accreditation process. They are supposed to make all of these figures readily available as of a few years back.
I couldn't tell you were that info is for my COM and I have looked for it. I have seen it for WVSOM, but I haven't found it in an obvious place for anyone else.
