Just the fact that one gets accepted into a premedical program, however mediocre, still proves one is smarter than the average bear
Working with medical students for almost 20 years has shown me that being "booksmart" and being able to score high in tests means very little in the world after school is over. Many times a piece of framed paper on the wall that says you have a degree is still just a piece of paper.
Really now? Apart from 1 guy in my (final) year I'm pretty sure everyone else will do just fine, if not more. Because you know, one doesn't go from just filling in a piece of paper to standing on his own in a hospital the next day. Once you get accepted almost everyone succeeds.
That being said there is a lot of medical students in the earlier years that think they are better than everyone else even though there are way more brilliant students in other fields. Other student faculties disliked us just because of this. So stop being a little shit and grow up eee. You'll probably learn in time as well but it's never too early to stop being a dick.

When all your arguments for why your candidate is a good candidate revolve around badmouthing your opponent, it's pretty obvious you have a shitty candidate. All Trump supporters ever do is cry about how corrupt Hillary is even though Trump is a conman who is known to regularly stiff those he's hired to work for him and literally ran a shitty scam that he tried to call a university.
Of course, every Trump supporter who just read that last paragraph is furiously typing on their keyboard "All that Clinton supporters ever talk about is how how shitty Trump is, so by your logic Clinton is also a shitty candidate! Checkmate!" No. Fucking. Shit. Anyone with two brain cells to rub together knows that Clinton is a terrible candidate. She's your standard corrupt, lying politician who leans way too far to the right. However, anyone with two brain cells can also compare Clinton and Trump policy wise and realize that while Clinton is certainly a garbage candidate for president, Trump is magnitudes worse.

Yes almost everyone succeeds. Only extremely rarely does a person who got through medical school and his residency fail afterwards.
This doesn't mean that terrible doctors and practices don't exist. Unfortunately I've heard and seen stuff that I know was beyond questionable and It's disheartening because you can't do anything about it. However cases like this are few and far between and doctors that fail are even more rare.
Maybe because a lot of us actually care and will try to help in the best way they can :).
Sorry if I missed your point but just saying that without elaborating won't help me understand it any faster.

Wow, they really need to fire Lester Holt... He did a horrible job moderating, but he also gave the Clinton campaign the debate questions in advance for the first debate! http://baltimoregazette.com/clinton-received-debate-questions-week-debate/

We probably have different views and definitions of "failing" as a doctor but I wasn't really talking about that and I am not sure how we got there.
My point was that I have been around many students and doctors who have MD's and PhD's but were unable to effectively do the most basic of tasks without directions. Such as filling out a request form that asks for simple information, using a touch screen KIOSK to order a hoagie, etc.
I disagree with saying that just because someone has a piece of paper that says you earned a degree, that it makes you smarter than people around you. Sure that person is intelligent but there is a huge difference between being book smart and being street smart. Being a "smarter person" is a subjective statement.

Trying to come up with ways that trivialize people known for being smart just makes u sound bitter

Yeah come on what the fuck 60% of people in the US don't even go to college
Like sure there are smart people who don't and dumb people who do but realistically above average isn't tough to achieve. I don't know why you are arguing about this
I don't know what street smart even is. Sure some people have a lot better problem solving and critical thinking and med students are notorious for just being able to memorize but come on are you really fighting that hard to make it sound like Elliot isn't in the top 50%? Maybe it seemed like he was smelling his own farts and its not relevant to his argument but that doesn't make it untrue
Thats dumb as fuck and misses the point of this thread
Edit: I can't believe I'm defending eee

Oh look another about 125 IQ subhuman who felt like gloating in the fact he is smarter than the average, while he cannot comprehend the fact that among the truely highly gifted (people like me 138 or Donald Trump with 156, a sub 130 IQ person is nothing more but a more vocal idiot. Since the majority of Clinton are women and minorities, and they on average score less on the IQ scale, you could safely say, they are the camp of the dummies..

whymeoCan any of the Trump supporters who keep posting in this thread come up with five reasons why Trump is a good candidate that don't mention Hillary?
I don't view myself as a Trump Supporter but I will give this a try even thought there is likely an avalanche of negativity heading my way because of it. Lets see how many ppl I can offend with my 5 reasons for Trump over Hillary
----- Trump is Pro-Gun. Both Clinton's have never been friendly regarding guns.
----- National Security & Immigration Control which I view as one in the same. Clinton has said in the debates and speeches the same bullshit Obama has been saying for 8 years about immigration control and he has done nothing at all to fix the problem. I personally don't want to risk another 4-8 years under the same strategy. Who knows if Trump will get anything done on this front but I am more willing to take a chance on his actions than I am on Clinton.
----- Trump is not a career politician. Many of us are sick of the status quo in Washington. Trump could potentially breathe life into our failing political system for the future.
----- He is an accomplished business leader far outstripping Clinton. With the national debt looming over us all, he is easily the better choice for new ideas on this front. Foreign business deals will be on notice if he gets elected and making your business competitors nervous is not a bad thing.
----- Foreign Affairs Wild-Card. He may actually do the things he has pledged in his speeches which may mean an end to some foreign powers taking advantage of us on the world stage. Speech after speech means nothing unless action is taken afterwards, which is what you will 100% get with Clinton being elected.
