[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think my dd has the brains for it but not the tenacity. She's an average student who does the min to pass. She does not have the drive to take the hard science courses as prep for med school.[/quote] Being a doctor is about a good memory (taking the mcat) and tenacity and being able to deal with the really long and hard days in residency. Of course you need brains too but the drive and stamina matters a lot in terms of getting through the grind of the system. [/quote] Thread isn't just about becoming a doctor. Any field that requires serious will and brainpower e.g. MD, corporate law, Silicon Valley, PhD, bulge bracket finance, MBB consulting.[/quote] LOL You cannot seriously put law or consulting on par with what it takes to be a doctor. This is what is completely wrong with Washington--all these lawyers really think they're something and haven't a clue that they are a dime a dozen. All they did that the rest of us didn't is sell their souls.[/quote]
