Seems like half of my EMT class were pre med students. This was a few years ago and to my knowledge NONE of them got accepted into medical school. This is despite the fact they were attending a pretty well respected University and pursuing a pre med degree tailored to prepare them for medical school.
Of course a couple of them failed the EMT course because they thought it would be a total blow off class, which would be a pretty good indication they maybe should have been rethinking their career decision.
Anyone that thinks taking an EMT class is going to help them get into med school is foolish.
It is not however correct to figure that anyone incapable of passing an EMT class is not cut out to be a doctor. The EMT class is taught in a manner so different from most college classes that even "smart" students may struggle with it.
