In my medical school, there was a legend about a midnight study session in the old library. A student claimed to have seen a ghostly figure.

I know a person who applied to medical school but was rejected because of a lack of clinical experience. As a reapplicant, they found a part - time job as a medical scribe.

Along with improving their personal statement to reflect this growth, they were successfully admitted to medical school the second time.

At medical school, during a CPR training session, a student got so into it that he started doing the chest compressions really vigorously on the dummy.

In my school, there was a girl who had a stomachache. When she went to the school medical room, the doctor was eating something really smelly.

One horror story is the extreme lack of sleep. Students have to study long hours for exams and practicals.

Sure. There was a time when a medical student accidentally spilled a tray of medical instruments during an important practical exam.
