This difference between medical board examinations and real world practice is something that mirrors my real-world experience too, having finished med school and started residency a year ago.

I’ve heard others say before that real clinical education starts after medical school and once residency starts.

Could you elaborate on what you mean?

That 80% of medical issues could be categorized as "standard medicine" with some personalization to the person?

residency you obviously see a lot of real life complicated cases but aren't the majority of the cases something a non resident could guide if not diagnose ?
