1. Can a physician be both compassionate and intelligent, or, one can only possess either?

2. Is compassion a personal choice for each individual physician, or, is it a must?

3. How can a medical school evaluate the "Compassion grade" from all the applicants each year?

4. Should medical schools require their applicants to take courses related to humanity, or related courses?

 
1. Is this a joke?

2. Do you people have too much time on your hands?
 
AMEN!!!

NEW OSTEOPATHIC OATH:

-A physician should be compassionate.

-Actually a physician ONLY has to be compassionate.

-Oh by the way, we believe in holism so take that you egotistical allopathic bastard!

 
Do you really think you are going to get a serious answer?
Dogboy is right, you gotta chill man..
If you aren't compassionate AND intelligent you won't be able to make too far.
