Hi,
I was wondering if it's common to feel like your classmates are complete idiots pretty much every day your first two years. I'm an M1, it's the end of February,and I feel smarter than everyone here. Actually, I feel a lot smarter. Does it get any better? My confidence is sky-rocketting and as much as I try to be humble, I feel like I'm perpetually surrounded by idiots. I study a lot but I don't feel like I work very hard at all (even less than in undergrad) and I'm wondering if it's me, or if this is a common feeling. Practically everyone in my med school class acts like they're not struggling--- no matter what the class average looks like and I think, maybe they should start struggling, because frankly, I'm embarassed for them. Any thoughts?
