Medical school and residency are incredibly hard things. So you could make getting admitted to them easier sure but you’d be setting people up to fail if they can’t pull 80 hour weeks and manage information overload when they get there.

I think what parent was referencing are the “tricks” required to get into med school. Applications are incredibly competitive, and students have every incentive to do anything they can to make the cut. Easier classes, begging for grades, leaning on connections, charity work (dependent on financial resources), etc. Leet code grinding, med school edition. Perfectly good potential doctors are passed over because they are missing X.
