    They… Are? Seems like a lot of people responding aren’t reading the article, so:

    • Brazil is huge, and has the largest public healthcare system in the world.
    • This is the first time they’ve conducted a national test against medical universities
    • They are not punishing students, but the universities, and restricting new enrollment at them

    And no, they are not all private institutions.

      You’re insinuating I didn’t read the article. 😛 But you’re right, I didn’t, because the statement I was referring to is right in the title.

      How are they “about to graduate” if teachers weren’t passing them when they shouldn’t have, if they lack basic knowledge? You shouldn’t be reaching the end of your medical programme about to graduate if you haven’t passed any courses. 🤷‍♂️

        Hah, yea, they’re in their last year. It doesn’t say how they are going to handle it. This also means there are graduates who would probably fail, too.
