Its also a regulation issue.
Medical doctors carefully regulate the number of new doctors to keep wages high. Its difficult to get into med school but when you graduate you'll likely get a medical doctor job.
Public school teachers do not regulate the number of new public school teachers at all, and as such the state U system in my state produces roughly twice as many ed degree holders as there are jobs. Assuming hiring system is perfect (which it is not, LOL) the bottom half of ed grads in my state have to find non educational work. Four years of "show up on time and do what you're told" makes them good waitresses and bartenders in my experience, but on a civilizational basis it seems an incredibly waste of money and talent.
- dawg- 6y agoI don't think that's the reason medical school is exclusive. It's expensive and time-consuming to train good doctors. If you are sick, would you rather have your doctor be the one who who graduated from a class of 25, or the one who graduated from a class of 250? Which one do you think got the better education? More hands-on experience? Direct attention from instructors?
