<p>Simple answer is: Yes, schooling matters. In most cases. </p>
<p>IF you went to the ‘southern medical school for hicks’ i’m sure they would notice that your stabbing the patient through the heart to help her breathing… </p>
<p>However, that is only for around 10% of the med schools out there, around 80%, it really doesn’t matter where you came from too much, but the other 10%, schooling certainly matters, to get a job at a really good hospital. </p>
<p>so, in case you didn’t catch it. I’ll put it in an easier format for the rest of you mortals. </p>
<p>10% - School matters because the school is so terribly pathetic.
80% - School is within the average level, and therefore, competition is standard. and chances on getting a job are normal.
10% - School is great, and chances on getting a good job are higher.
= 10+80 + 10 = total of 100%. give or take a percent or two. </p>
<p>That being said, go to John Hopkins. That’s where I’m going. If you get in, i’ll even give you a free cafeteria stamp.</p>
