Quit

While I was still digesting the email from KM, there came the curriculum day.

One hot topic that came up in the discussion was: How could we advised those students who are not suitable for medicine to quit ?

"We have to talk to them frankly." SF said.

"Yes, but, after seeing several dozens of students of this kind in the past 15 or 20 years, there was only one who agreed to quit." HK remarked.

"It is difficult," TC added, "Many students have too much pressure - their parents and friends have very high expectation for them. They have an obsessive idea that they could not just quit."

We all agreed in silence ...

A moment later, I whispered at the ears of JW, "Do they mean we should see the parents of those students who fail the final MB - as they have in the kindergarten and primary school ?"
