The US is also somewhat unique in that a medical student is required to first get a Bachelor's degree in something/anything before he can enroll in medical school; medical school is treated as graduate study. Most other countries allow qualified students to directly enroll in medical school without first getting a Bachelor's degree.

There's a graduate entry program in the UK. The standard medical degree is 5-6 years, but graduate entry program is 4 years, which I think is the same as the US.

Uh, no.
A bachelor's degree is not required to attend medical school.

Back in the day, Northwestern had a "Honors Medical Program." If you were accepted into this program, and they took about 60 per year, you would attend undergraduate classes, with a heavy emphasis on sciences, for two years. After two years, you would join the "regular" 1st year medical school class. Having completed the 1st year of medical school, you would get a "BSM" degree - "Bachelor of Science in Medicine." So with undergrad and medical school, it was a 6 year program.
I was part of the 8 year program, even though I completed my BA in a bit over 3 years.

LSU Med:
Minimum academic requirements for admission are satisfactory completion of the required subjects as specified below along with a total of ninety hours of acceptable credit hours at the time of matriculation into medical school. All coursework must be completed in a satisfactory manner, at a grade-level of C or better, in an educational institution within the United States or Canada that has been approved by an appropriate accrediting agency. If your school accepts an online course as credit toward a degree, then we will accept that course also. This applies ONLY to lecture-based courses. Any lab work should be done in person. This applies to both prerequisite and upper level science courses. The school which offers the online course must be an ACCREDITED American or Canadian university, college, or community college.
Acceptance of advanced placement for credit toward fulfilling specific requirements in the sciences (biology, chemistry, and physics) may be approved on a case-by-case basis. Transfer credit from medical schools outside of the United States is generally not permissible.

Columbia is not to be outdone.
I'm sorry...
Who the FUCK has this kind of time during medical school? If you do, your school is seriously fucked up.
My schedule in freshman year:
Every day - lab and lecture are interchangeable:
- Wake at 7. Shower, shave, dress, breakfast.
- Class at 8. Finish at 10 - two lectures. Lab from 10-12.
- Lunch 12 to 1.
- Class from 1-3, or lab 3-4.
- Study 4-6.
- Dinner 6-7
- Study 7-10.
- Break 10-10:30
- Study 10:30 to midnight
- Sleep 12 midnight to 7 AM
Every goddamn day for a year.
Weekends were different.
Saturday, no classes.
- Wake at 7. Shower, shave, dress, breakfast.
- Study from 8 AM to noon.
- Stop, Just stop.
Sunday, no classes
- Study 12 PM to midnight.
- Sleep
- See Monday
These self-righteous snowflakes piss me off to no end. Other than sleep and study, I had about 24 hours per week for myself - seeing my (first) wife, and family. Reading, music, etc. And that 36 hours includes sleep time.
Fuck them, bigly.

The medical students I knew did some pretty serious drinking at the weekend.
In the interests of research, obviously.

i could have done some serious drinking at the weekend as well. Had I done so, I doubt I would have had time to produce or participate in such a nice dance video.
Over the weekend I chose to see my (first) wife and family.
Priorities:
- drinking
- girlfriend
- family
There you go.
But the bigger issue is that these kids consider this to be important. Self-aggrandizing "look at how cool I am" videos might convey a message they don't plan for.

Here's what George isn't saying... There ain't no dummies in med school. These are very smart people absolutely busting their ass to keep up. At least it used to be that way...

But still, according to @Aqua-Letifer:
It's incredible how categorically terrible most of them are at expressing themselves.

I dare say it still is. We may frown at their shenanigans, but it's not exactly the end of the world.

I think there's definitely a risk of taking this whole embarrassing attempt to get down with the groovy kids too seriously.
