This is a serious question here. If somebody does four years of school racking up 200k in debt, then graduate from residency should they not be qualified to practice? Isn’t the practice and the reason Podiatry gives board exams that they know the schools and residencies are not educating as they should?
Here are some tweets about lawyers and bar exams that got me thinking about this issue:
If law schools did not admit so many students, would we really need the bar exam — which does not do a good job measuring professional competence — to weed out 20-50% of aspiring lawyers *after* they have gone into six-figure debt?
The failure of bar examiners in most states to grant a diploma privilege during a pandemic is embarrassing to the profession. But it also gets to a bigger problem: there are too many diplomas for the job market
It’s a statement, and the basic issue is it’s the schools job to weed out kids that are not smart enough, not the board’s. It’s residency’s job to only graduate qualified residents not the school’s. It’s an interesting thought.


Podiatry board exam equal money…. da
Podiatry is the xerox copy of real world medicine, Podiatry tries to legitimize itself by doing the same things real medicine does….all for financial gain. Why not join the big boys, like the DOs did? Why not take the same board exams as the med students? Three years in a podiatry residency for a limited license makes no sense. Anyways, no one applying to Pod schools nowadays. There is no future in Podiatry.
Exactly. Ask Danny. He thinks he’s board certified in…..podiatry?!? …….just plain certified! Loves Eddy’s post about the dirty diaper podiatry face. That’s so true! They all have that odd expression in their faces. Likely from decades of fraud, lying to themselves, and upselling useless crap. Trying to imitate real medicine. The diaper face.
Seth-great points. Clarification, most “graduates” from dupe skool have @300-400K (+ accruing interest) stupe dent (E) loans including debt from C/D tier undergrad “universities.”
Nice reality commentary. The f boards Podiatry make money off students . They graduate plus 3 resident program given f paper!
The fake “residency” word was used to lure the idiots in to a fraudulent poorfession. A fake poorfession of 3rd and 4th chances. The shit box club. The delusional club. Idiots thinking they’re driving a lambo when in FACT they’re driving a jalopy.
