MDs, DDS, and JDs are more consistent in terms of difficulty and aptitude.
I dunno know about that. Not acquainted with dental schools and at least med students have USMLE (boards) but there can be a huge discrepancy in the effort in getting a JD. Being handed a JD during commencement at Thomas M. Cooley Law School and Yale Law School is almost as different as starting in the 2D Cajun World Series and starting in the MLB World Series.
All degrees are a form of gatekeeping but some of the gates have much better locks on them than others. The discrepancy is probably high enough that there are probably some schools where a PhD in some softer social sciences are harder to obtain than some STEM PhDs at garbage schools.
