Pre-meds’ arrogant sense of entitlement is bewildering. There is no other class of students on any college campus that marches into class expecting that the professor will cater directly to THEIR needs and desires. Who else would consistently barge into the chemistry department’s offices and harass faculty to “get them published” or to beg for a grade change? The fact of the matter is that “pre-meds” are not the only students who have to work hard on college campuses. Engineers, for one, have to put in at least as many hours, if not more. My only conclusion is that their type suffers from delusions of power – that they are somehow better than the legions of other hardworking people on campus because they could POTENTIALLY be earning more, after 10 years or so.

What’s even more hilarious is that you could go through a 3-4 year residency and still make 250k tops. And these idiots would be left with their mouths open, wondering why sucking up to their chief resident didn’t work.

Fact: The students who get into the best medical schools and who have the highest MCAT scores are, more often than not, the ones who DO NOT advertise that they are “pre-med”, who are humble about their grades, low-key about their campus involvements, and actually do research that matters – just like any other ordinary and decent human being.
