Yes, a generalization that he/she seems to believe is true. Saying it's a "generalization" doesn't make it any less ridiculous.
For what it's worth, I have never met anyone who spent 18hrs/day in the library, or anywhere close to it. I have also never met a med student with kick-a$$ grades who was completely deficient in social skills. Hard sciences, yes, but not in med school. What I have seen are a lot of students who console themselves over their mediocre grades by (wrongly) believing that they are superior in "social skills".
Nice try, dragging in the foreign students. I'm not interested in getting into a stupid argument because you want to put words in my mouth.
Agreed. At my school, the 'best and brightest' excel pretty much across the board. And the dullest and dimmest, or whatever you want to call them, spend too much time yammering about their 'superior social skills'.
