I actually have to disagree with you the Medical school is for perfectionist students. Although it is needed to be devoted to your pursuit of medicine and saving lives, a perfectionist, defined as a person who’s happiness depends on succeeding 100% of the time would be a downside in being a physician because, a patient of yours can always die, even if they received the best care possible. Physicians can only hope to extend life and improve the quality of life by curing disease, they cannot hope to stop death from occurring. any doctor needs to accept that death is a possibility for any patient, and this is more so necessary in specialties like neurosurgery or oncology.
