I'm wondering if someone didn't go to medical school if they could still become good at diagnosing and treating disease as effective as people who did go to medical school by reading all the books and taking all the tests (maybe using practice USMLE tests from First Aid etc.) that med students take. Maybe the reason for doing this would be to have your own opinion about your own sicknesses or a family member's.
obviously the big different would be the hands on aspect, which admittedly is a big part of medicine, and they probably could not become surgeons, but could they still diagnose and theoretically know how to treat diseases?
