Hello all!
I have recently been reviewing UW Bioethics topics to prepare for an interview (and because they are interesting, relevant, and seem important to have a grasp on). Unfortunately, I have been tripped up on some of the cases because they require a fair amount of medical knowledge (i.e. how to determine when certain treatments may be considered "futile" in certain patients.) This may seem like a dumb question (so I apologize)... but what level of medical knowledge am I expected to have prior to medical school interviews?
My assumption was little to none (considering that is the purpose of medical school). But several SDNers have recommended this site, so I am a bit confused.
Thanks!
