And when they start practicing, they ALL refer each other. My family doctor is retiring in a couple of months. Great guy. Volunteered to be my kid's high school doctor for the football team and band. He was the old school kind of doctor that would review his patients' tests and symptoms at night until 2:00am. The kind that when you need him, he would fit you in and when together in the office would ask about the wife and kids and actually talk with you to find out what kind of person you are, your activities, your pets, and tell anecdotal stories. He also earned an ME degree "as a backup plan" but chose to go to medical school to build a family practice. Great guy all around. He's retiring and moving to be close to his grandkids. He is Pakistani.
That said, every specialist referral he made, he made to another Pakistani doctor. I'm a little more discretionary and would see the specialists I preferred, however, but I did make a mental note, over the years, of his penchant for referring patients to other Pakistani doctors.

I’ve read where kids that miss getting in by 1 or 2 points are so devastated that they commit suicide, There are’t any American kids that desperate, sorry to say.

Would you say that nurse anesthesia is at risk of becoming oversaturated in the future? The pay for that field is phenomenal. $200k is a pretty typical starting salary for most CRNAs.

Back-up degrees should be the primary plan for most pre-med students unless they absolutely knock it out of the park with prerequisite courses, GPA, and MCAT scores

You took everything out of context are you MSM ?
