They need to scam you first and make you obedient so you can recieve anal and be okay with it. In reality no doctor remembers shit from most of their time undergrad.

>4 years undergraduate
and it doesn't have to even be in STEM. so a BA who gets 100% in basket weaving will be favored over a 90 BSc in biochem. let that sink in.
>4 years medical school
rote memory brainlets need all that time to memorize those books.
>3-7 years residency.

You are factually wrong. That's a meme they push to weed out the brainlets so they take a psychology major.

even if it wasn't intentional, this isn't an unwelcome side effect. on day 1 of gen chem i was surrounded by idiots slurping starbucks talking about their life as a doctor. 1/2 of them dropped after the first homework, and the rest after the first exam

it's to root out the poor primarily, if you're a rich impatient retard you have all the time in the world to swap degrees whenever you want and still get an incredibly high paying position from nepotism.

Mainly because most of it is built on elitist, aristocratic nonsense from the 19th century, same as how we apparently believe that stressing and overworking people as much as possible is most conducive to learning.

Not really because you still need to do well on the MCAT and take the pre reqs like o chem, at least if you're living in the USA. Canadian med schools scrapped their pre reqs and so have most Australian med schools but again they need the MCAT so you can't really get around that. There are a lot of humanities majors and stuff that make it into medicine.

Depends how good a medical school you are applying to. Low tier and you can do that, an actually good one won't touch ya without a laundry list of good recommendations and stuff at least.

I see well lucky for me I guess I'm not applying to American schools cause I'm a humanities fag that wants to do psychiatrist so I will probably scrape by on the MCAT
