What effect will this have or, rather, has this had on the healthcare community?
I don't want to come off as classist/racist, but does having a lower gpa or non-stellar ec's lead to an under educated healthcare professional? I've seen the equation, but I couldn't articulate how vast or minuscule the difference is if I tried to.
Also, what about bridge programs like the ones they have in Mexico? What about grade inflation? I have a friend who is soon to graduate from a Mexican medical school. She has failed classes, some of them ad nauseam. She is still graduating and, from what I hear, is a shoe in for an internship with a Texas hospital. What gives?
