In some ways the achievement of others on the same curve will sparkle and shine. A lowering of standards also lowers the bar some have already cleared completely. Most test drive every car on the lot...yet pull in to the lot of the first doctor on the block and trust in its care without question.
@Punxi I have been saying for years that we don't know what kind of grades our doctors received in school. I can tell you that the top grade medical students usually gravitate toward the big cities where they can make the most money...and those who received low B grades or just squeaked by with a C go to the rural areas.
