If that random dude from the street has a 100 % succes rate, and the other has a printed out paper diploma and 50 % succes rate, guess where im going. Academia usually garants a minimum of performance - i will give you that, it is no indicator for a maximum.

What kind of world do you live in where a random dude form the street has a 100% success rate in neurosurgeries? Well I guess if he performed zero surgeries then he automatically gets 100% success rate.

  In a world where i know nurses often perform doctors dutys and jobs, while new doctors stumble around clueless. Knowledge on adjunct fields and skills can accumulate in a person over time, thus allowing them to perform similar feets. Like, a bright pupil might learn from a master, if it is not intended. It has happend- since medieval times- apprenticeships, although a attack on caste-think can happen today. Yes, they did not jump through the money hoops, that are suppossed to keep them away- but some of them studied what happens around them. Those servant peoples.. they might not be automatons.

      And doctors are no longer, by virtue of having spend a long time in a building with lots of drinking buddys https://www.aamc.org/download/102346/data/aibvol7no2.pdf https://www.aamc.org/download/102346/data/aibvol7no2.pdf If it had a drop-out quota similar to comp sci or math, i might actually consider your elitism a valid opinion. Post all the meritocracy nonsense you need to post, but deep down you know, if you had the money and a mediocre kid- you would help him through and put additional money hoops up behind him to jump through. The irony, that all the others doing the same thing, have you lay on a metal table, beeing cut open by maybee not the best person for the job, it never reaches escape velocity.
