[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to say I’m mystified by all this. I have a very smart incredibly hard working teen who wants to be a doctor. She did well in HS and got into an excellent college. But now they seem like they want to push half the kids out of pre med with really hard “weed out” classes and a lousy grading curve. And on top of all that coursework she’s supposed to do research (even though no labs have spots thanks to the administration), shadowing (which you basically have to know someone to achieve), clinical hours (really don’t even know how you do this) and volunteering, plus of course studying for the mcat. And that’s all before med school itself and the grind of residency! It really seems like they don’t want people to be doctors! So we end up importing doctors from countries that make it much easier to be doctors. This all seems to make zero sense to me. We are taking our top American students and doing everything we can to duscourage them from becoming doctors. [/quote] Add in being middle class but on the edge of poor but not enough to qualify for help and its pretty insurmountable. The issues listed here were the same issues I experienced when graduating in 2013. [/quote]
