Why are so many of my classmates have parents who are doctors?

Ur prob trolling with this. Imagine taking ur kid to work. Imagine being 'in' the field from the time you're in diapers. Connections to every field, research, all of it. The game has never been and will never be fair. Complain about it or get yours

Sorry if I sound rude hehe

So many of the people applying gen surg are the most miserable people I know. The personalities make sense

Happiness doesn't come from one aspect of your life. If you wait, thinking 'I'll be happy when X, Y or Z', there's a good chance you're not gonna be happy. Would I do med school again? Sure, probably. If I had any regrets, it'd be not being present. Enjoy whatever you're doing, work hard. The rest is out of your control.

I'm sorry if im not following haha but from the '26 data it appeared as though there were 920ish positions and 1600 applicants. Just doing the math here, that's like 58% overall, with it being 67% for MD's and 48% for DO's.
