Pretty seriously stupid. I think they are auditioning for the next Idiocracy movie.
They do check all the boxes:
No musical talent.
No musical skills.
No dancing skills.
No intelligent lyrics.
No ability to make words rhyme.
So stupid they don't know how stupid they are.
Yeup, sign em up. Tell them they will be paid in fame credits.

To think I couldn't go because of Money. No federal loans back in the 90's. It didn't matter that I was accepted to 5 different medical schools, it didn't matter that I was 1 semester/ summer from a B.S. in Biology with a heavy AP minor. I had any pick of letters of recommendation from my hospitals, EMS, Fire, etc.
Now this is what is passing as MD at a school of the "highest learning ($$$$$$$$$$$)".
I think I'm better off missing that opportunity.
What a mess.

I've told this story here before on at least one occasion in the past but given the nature of the thread and the absolute SH*T SHOW medicine has become since the plandemic it bears repeating . . .
WAY BACK in the early - mid 70's there was a push to steer med students into primary care and away from the more lucrative sub specialties. a new medical school - the North Eastern University College Of Medicine (NEUCOM) was founded through a collaboration between Kent State U, Youngstown State U, and the University of Akron. the NEUCOM program was an accelerated 6 yr BSMD program and graduated its first class in 1981 - accepting 14 students from each of the 3 participating undergrad universities.
I had already been accepted to Wash U in St Louis when NEUCOM accepted their first class of 42 students in '75 - but many of my pre med peers at YSU had tried to get into the accelerated NEUCOM program . . . I was told by several of those kids that the top 13 slots from Youngstown State were filled - but - admissions @ NEUCOM had to "pass over" 276 other more academically qualified prospective students to get their 14'th student - a BLACK FEMALE - which they needed to meet their "quota".
that's what I was told by SEVERAL other kids I knew in the pre-med program at YSU. While I quite obviously can't attest to the veracity of their statements, I can certainly attest to the fact that I distinctly remember being told that by more than a few very pissed off white boys.
now, every time I drive past the Rootstown exit on I-76 with its big North East Ohio Medical University sign, I remember those kids who got cheated out of a seat in medical school - right there at home - just because they were WHITE
WOKE is simply an extension of anti white racism sold to virtue signaling whypeeeppo

Girl, I'd let you treat me now over this crap, even though we've never met. I'd know you CARE and are conscientious. And not buying into the woke.

Lame. Very lame. What really bothered me was that the lyrics and production really seemed to be the product of relatively low IQ students. I have to wonder how much of it was created by affirmative action-type, or quota students. You would think that post grad students - at least medical students - would have a greater mastery of the language. At least low expectations don't let me down.

Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition. I don’t know what’s worse now, a Harvard Med student or a Vault Tec Doctor….
Having never met or known you, I would have rather you had that opportunity than deal with those I've dealt with in the last 5 years.
That just further proves my reluctance to go to the doctor or into the hospital

Meanwhile today in Israel:
"As nursing and medical staff stood at attention to honor the memory of the six million who perished in the Holocaust, a baby was being born and its cries mingled with the sounds of the siren, creating a moment of hope during a time of national grief."

Ivy League Grads Slip Below County Fair Carnies On Forbes List Of Most Desirable Employee Candidates
Economy · May 5, 2024 · BabylonBee.com
U.S. — Forbes has released its newest list of "Most Desirable Employee Candidates", which saw Ivy League graduates slip down just below carnies and the people who wash car windows at stoplights.
"We surveyed the top 500 companies in the United States," explained lead author Dan Rollins. "Employers consistently stated they would pass over a Harvard or Columbia grad for a guy with two years of experience operating a Tilt-A-Whirl. It's been quite a shift."
According to Rollins, most CEOs stated they wouldn't even bother interviewing an Ivy League grad if they had the option to hire a four-year carnie with balloon dart experience. "The carnies are so much better at conversing with people from every walk of life. They aren't stuck in that Ivy League bubble," explained business owner Larry Fink. "Also, they don't attempt to burn down your corporate office because the break room coffee machine was made in Israel. Advantage, carnie."
Carnies received higher marks than Ivy League grads in work ethic, interpersonal communication, and not attempting to destroy people and institutions with racist neo-Marxist ideology. "The only real downside to hiring carnies instead of Columbia grads is we had to go back to allowing smoke breaks," said Fink. "Otherwise, it's been a massive upgrade. No stating pronouns, no trigger warnings, no boycotts... and they actually know how to work. I'll take that along with some Marlboro Reds any day."
At publishing time, Forbes had updated the list again as Ivy League graduates fell below guys who drive poorly marked ice-cream trucks around family neighborhoods.

Unfortunately, they have already arrived. Look up some of the one-star and no-star ratings.

At least in the second video, the vocalists can sing, and the dancers can dance well. It is not my style of music or dance, but as a musician, I can see that it is reasonable for its type.
Before losing the will to live or getting too upset over these videos or the "waste" of time involved, you can do a media search and discover some of the dozens of good (and often wickedly funny) ones Nightwolf discovered when he was in medical school just a few years ago.
Medical school is extremely stressful, and I suspect this sort of thing blows off steam for many younger students. The good videos are sometimes even helpful. Making up jingles, songs, or even rap poems helps medical students memorize things they must learn for tests. I used to make up similar stuff when I was a history major and was involved in study groups to help classmates remember all those dates history students used to memorize. In medicine, such tricky information can be life-saving, and I don't care if my cancer specialist is singing his dosages in his or her head.
Others poke fun at the medical industrial complex, and others are just students blowing off steam as they have since the Universities of the Middle Ages.
But that first video was epically bad and a waste of time and effort.
