It's true. I wish years ago we would've spent less time academic-ing and more time just being immersed into real non-simulated clinical environments. Which they did, I just think some of the curriculum could have been cut even more for increased off site clinical work. Instead of wound debridement on an orange for too many hours, have us start there (with an orange just to get the general idea) then send us to a wound clinic where we could try hands on under the scrutiny of a skilled clinician who could stop us immediately if we were about to screw something up. That always annoyed me. The orange aint nothing like a real life patient who may or may not be in a good mood or may or may not be cooperative
