It’s 120 to 130 which is similar to engineers.

They aren’t that much smarter. The selection criteria is more about the ability to handle pressure than it is about raw intelligence.

Tons of bottom feeders go to medical schools in say Kansas, so there’s a lot of leeway here in terms of intelligence.



What a weird comment. There are several good medical schools in Kansas. In particular the University of Kansas School of Medicine is top notch.


Only wierd for you because you got triggered by the Kansas part. In general the comment is true.

There’s a school in Kansas that sits right on top of Caribbean schools in terms of reputation. I know several people who had to go there.


In general your comment was false. You're just lying and making things up. There are lower-tier medical schools in California, Massachusetts, and most every other state. The state, whether it's Kansas or somewhere else, is almost totally irrelevant to the quality of physicians produced.


No I'm not. I'm referring to a specific bad school(s) in kansas. I never made a comment about Kansas itself.

I never said the state is correlated with the quality of the doctor, or even if the quality of the school is associated with the quality of the doctor. You made that up. Which makes you the liar.


If you're referring to a specific school then name the school instead of making lame low-effort comments about a state.


>If you're referring to a specific school then name the school instead of making lame low-effort comments about a state.

You're fucking right. I should've named the specific school. (And I didn't make a comment about the state I made a comment about school(s) in the state which is not about all schools in the state.)

That's would I should do. What you should do is: Don't accuse me of lying and then lie yourself. Read the comment more carefully. Don't assume shit.

No point in continue this. We both get it and this thread is going nowhere.
