Should Med Schools Strive To Produce Competent Physicians Or Social Activists?
Instead of tightening the admissions criteria, the administration responded by LOWERING THE GRADUATION REQUIREMENT to passing Part
One and JUST TAKING, BUT NOT NECESSARILY PASSING, PART TWO. Nary, a peep was heard from the faculty about this lowering of
standards.
Medical Schools Forced to Lower Their Standards
Faced with increased tuition, declining enrollment and a lack of qualified candidates, medical schools across the country have been
forced to drastically lower their admissions standards in order to attract incoming students.
