Being semi-retired, I have some free time. I researched a few of the medical schools that are claimed to have acceptance rates of 30-45%. I found that the figure is more like 18-20%.
Keeping in mind that the basic prerequisites for medical school are more stringent than those for most other fields of postgraduate study, I think we can say that these medical schools are
reasonably selective. Having worked with medical students in America and Ireland, I find the sneering comment ‘anyone with a pulse’ to be arrogant and offensive. Medical school admission committees are usually averse to accepting students who are lacking in tolerance and empathy.
