Meanings
plural medical students
- A student enrolled at a medical school, who is training to become a physician.
If our criterion for extra remuneration is enduring greater personal sacrifice than others, then logic requires that we compare the medical student's discomfort to whatever levels of discomfort others are experiencing who work while the medical student is in school.
2003, Michael Albert, Parecon: Life After Capitalism, page 32Synonyms: med student, student doctor
