The dental practice will love it even more when they get sued into bankruptcy.
Remember, 50% of all doctors are literally below average.
...................
No not below average in intelligence.
To get the tickets one needs at least a 120 IQ
That would be an immediate fire at every hospital I have ever worked at.
We get a repeated class every year over hippa.
This is so bad, it would cause everyone to receive another class.
There is absolutely no IQ requirement for being a doctor.
Half of all doctors are literally below average for being a doctor. It is a mathematical fact.
What do you call the guy who graduated last in his class in Medical School? “Doctor”
What do you call the guy who graduated last in his class in Law School? “Senator”
Actually there is a requirement.
One needs an IQ of at least 120 to understand and pass the course work for undergraduate and graduate requirements for a medical degree.
As a matter of fact, when forensic psychologists are evaluating a cognitively compromised physician, a current average IQ of 100 to 105 is a sign of brain damage often attributed to drug, alcohol or disease. Grounds for monitoring or removal of license.
What do you call the guy who graduated last in his class in Medical School? “Doctor”
Absolutely
However the distribution is not across the normed IQ scale,
but instead distributed on a subsection of the 120 and up
Doesn’t mean he’s any good.
Not today.
Was I talking about good?
I was talking about intellectual requirements to pass the coursework to obtain a medical degree.
The DIE requirements have somewhat changed the picture, but not as much as one would think.
Intellectually incapable people get marginalized into office jobs, or lose their licenses because they are not able to do the work.
Not all, but many.
Doctors do stuff like this too. The patient should the dentist into oblivion
Lawyers have ruined the planet.
Please give one example of a college or university or medical test that requires an IQ measurement.
In my professional career, I was the Director of health information/medical records, and also the HIPAA privacy officer. This is wrong in so many ways. In my experience, those people would’ve been fired.
And I’m saying that being able to squeak through the academic requirements to obtain some sort of graduate degree appropriate to a particular profession doesn’t mean the person who does so is really any good at it.

I never said that. I said that in order to pass the required undergraduate and graduate courses to obtain a medical degree one needs and IQ of at least 120

Yes that may be true.
However the squeaker will need an IQ minimum of 120 to do that. In order to comprehend and understand the foundational materials.
Again, you do not. There is absolutely NO requirement for such an IQ, and sites clearly say that a 105 - 130 IQ is just an expected average IQ for doctors, if they might ever take such an IQ test.
105 IQ: https://iqtests.com/blog/blog-iq-by-profession/average-doctor-iq
120-130 IQ: https://poe.com/p/What-is-the-typical-IQ-range-for-individuals-in-the-medical-profession
Stop with the non-authoritative stance you have.
That squeaker will also be among the 50% of physicians who are, BY DEFINITION, below “average” (technically, below the median; I’m sure you know the difference).
