Pavia – Parents in the car in the parking lots outside the gates e guys neatly lined up to pursue their dream, to become doctors. They were 1,604 enrolled in the medical test who took the tests yesterday at the ship. A location chosen for them by the ministry of university and research which indicates to the candidates the university closest to their residence in which to take the exam even if, in the event of a positive result, they will not attend that university because they may have already chosen another.
There are four provinces from which the boys came (Pavia, Lodi, Cremona and Mantua) and that, like their colleagues from all over the rest of Italy, at 13 they entered and tried the same test for the whole national territory. “It is a very difficult test – said the father of Valentina, a student from Mantua who, after graduating in nursing sciences, would also like to pursue a degree in medicine -. I don’t even understand why they have to take it since many leave and do not arrive during the course of studies. to graduation “.
The boys they had an hour and 40 minutes to answer the questions. Out of the gates agitated parents. “This year everything went smoothly – he commented Alex Longo, student representative for the Coordination for the right to education -. The solution adopted in 2020 by the ministry due to Covid of the nearest home to take the test, is working well. It is more convenient to do the test closer to home rather than arriving from the South and then having to return. AND the controls do not create the gatherings that occurred in the past“Throughout Italy there will be 14 thousand places for European students and others for non-Europeans who want to study to wear the white coat. In Pavia 298, about 70 more than in the past. “When I took the test in 2017 – added Alex – there were 180 places for EU students and 2 for non-EU students. There are not many dropouts in medicine, it is a long degree course and those who start usually complete their studies. Then comes the problem of the specialty where a funnel is created “.
