This is not a thread about something ridiculous you heard that from that one clueless pre-med. What would you say are the biggest misconceptions you hear in the whole medical career process, premed, med, app cycles, etc?
For me it'd be the grand ol' :
"I wanna be a doctor so I can find the cure for cancer"
99% pre-meds I've heard said this also HATE the idea of doing/conducting scientific research. Good luck discovering any cures then folks!
Of course there's the DO vs MD misconception too.
