My school has perverted the whole idea of 1st year "clinical experience" so much that we just all sit in a circle and talk about kittens and other cute stuff. Pretty lame, but the real problem is the grading system. Take person A, who honors all the requirements: essays, written exams, physical exam exams, etc. Now if this guy misses and even makes up three rainbowy sessions, his a$$ is failed. How about Person B, with sweet little perfect attendence, fails every exam in the class, gets to make all of them up, passes the class. WTF?!!?!
Just because of oversleeping a couple times, I'm staring down two straight semesters of Nopass[slash]Pass grades (only after writing a 10 page essay to add the [slash] pass to it). Yeah, 10 pages about "professionalism" and how those of us lacking it will obviously end up killing hordes of patients before ultimately dying alone, bald, and fifteen pounds overweight.
How bad do you guys think these 1 credit bastards will tarnish a pretty damn decent transcript? It seems like even if I honor all 3rd year, I'll still have to answer for this bull****-
