You've hit the nail on the hea...Don't fret so much. You've hit the nail on the head re: the benefits of the Pass/Fail grading with the following:<br /><br />"Already, us med students are helping each other so much more than I ever saw in pre-med."<br /><br />That's the most important thing because when you get to clinical years, guess who you will be relying on to help you through? You'll be glad that the non-competitive environment was created so early in your career.<br /><br />And let's face it, a 60% average in non-clinical years will still set you up to be a very competent physician-in-training during your clinical years.<br /><br />Work hard now, really learn what they teach you in these first two years, do your best and, when you do get to your clinical years, treat your patients with care and respect. Then you'll be a physician that I will trust with my loved ones.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
