[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]
Yes, and then after you have dedicated years of your life and jumped through all of their hoops, only 40% of applicants are accepted every year. And don’t believe the AAMC’s fake BS concern over physician shortages. They throw up more roadblocks and barriers for applicants every year while raking in more and more money from them. Meanwhile, they and their cronies at the AMA are probably secretly lobbying Congress to not lift the residency cap so that they can keep wages up and keep the profession exclusive.[/quote]
