Episode description

"There should be no grades in medical school. Forty-something percent of applicants get accepted to one or more medical schools. To even apply to medical school, one needs to have not only graduated or be on track to graduate college, but also needs to have passed the MCAT and have the support of a pre-medical application committee. I am no mathematician, but I do not think that it is a stretch to say that less than 10 percent of those who wanted to go to medical school on their first day of college do, in fact, end up matriculating into medical school."

Adam Lieber is a medical student.

He shares his story and discusses his KevinMD article, "End medical school grades." (https://www.kevinmd.com/blog/2021/01/end-medical-school-grades.html)
