I swear that if I taped some of the stuff that happens around here and gave it to a TV show it would be more ridiculous than a trashy reality-TV show. Honestly, some students act like children!
We had our second and last endocrine test yesterday. Let me preface by saying that it was a very interesting block, I didn't mind studying the material and thought that I learned a lot of information. The test we had yesterday was quite difficult. I think that mostly it was due to poorly worded questions to which I failed to select the correct response - leaving me below the average on the exam. All this said, I learned a lot and I believe that is kind of the point of medical school - to learn things.
So I went to our test review today to find that there were a handful of questions that I got marked incorrect due to the question being written poorly by the presenting doctor. But if everyone thought the questions were quirky, then they should be adjusted. I think that it is important to let the course coordinator know so that he/she can alter our test scores, but there is no reason to get all in a huff about this. Some students were literally yelling and verbally attacking the coordinator and clinician present. It was absolutely terrible. I felt so bad for these people who have to listen to flustered and down right rude medical students fight for a couple of points that were completely nonsignificant in the grand scheme of things. I fail to see the usefulness of getting that worked up.
Like the saying goes: "you get more with sugar than with vinegar."
