It’s funny how everyone is against using AI for students to get summaries of texts, pdfs etc which I totally get.
But during my time through medschool, I never got my exam paper back (ever!) so the exam was a test where I needed to prove that I have enough knowledge but the exam is also allowed to show me my weaknesses are so I would work on them but no, we never get out papers back. And this extends beyond medschool, exams like the USMLE are long and tiring at the end of the day we just want a pass, another hurdle to jump on.
We criticize students a lot (righfully so) but we don’t criticize the system where students only study becase there is an exam, not because they are particularly interested in the topic at given hand.
A lot of topics that I found interesting in medicine were dropped off because I had to sit for other examinations.
because doing that enables pulling together 100% correct answers and leads to cheating? having a exam review where you get to see the answers but not keep the paper might be one way to do this?
Yeah, learning is a life's pursuit and doctors need to read medical journals and keep up on things.
If we’re gonna merge medschool, should we also do lawschool, gradschool, etc.?
