i feel like in part it is a social responsibility of pre meds, med students, and etc to do something about cheating, and by that i don't necessarily mean narking but alternatives seem not effective. this isn't elementary school any more where grades were for ****s and giggles, this is the real thing, people are taking tests that will determine whether they get into med school, whether they become doctors or not. Forget the fairness factor for a second, although it is still a vital component of the argument, and lets keep in mind the safety of future patients and those who will consult medical advice from these "cheaters". What keeps cheaters who abuse the fairness of a test from abusing their positions? I firmly believe that there are no easy way out of becoming a doctor, no shortcuts, and as much as undergrad and medical school teaches and test you about biology, anatomy, and physiology, it is also a lesson/test on your character and ethics. The rigorous educational aspect of medical education reflects the intense lifestyles and the commitments that doctors have to make. IF these students cannot withstand academic pressure and seeks to find a easy way out of school, what prevents them from seeking an easy way out of a surgery. Good grades aren't the only thing (at least i hope) that will make a good doctor
