You can't get around the drilling in anything, but the point is that students do an OBSCENE amount of it, and forget most of it. Also, as other's have said, most material is totally irrelevant to the actual practice of medicine and will be forgotten quickly. EX: You don't need to know organic chemistry to be anything but a medical researcher (which should be a distinct profession), yet the system falsely increases the number of requirements to keep people in school longer and maintain control. It's a corrupt system In my eyes, and people fall for this bullshit that it's so difficult to be a practicing doctor... it only is when you add extraneous stuff that is not necessary in the practice of medicine. Most doctors aren't researchers. You don't need that much education to practice medicine and fit the role of what people need when they seek a doctor. It has to change, because the current state of affairs is out of control. People are losing all that they have to the raping of the medical industry.
