From the time the medical school's acceptance letter is opened, students eagerly set off on the yellow brick road in pursuit of the attributes of the good physician: intelligence, compassion and courage. The students already possess these traits, just as the Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion did before they set out for Oz, but they may dissolve in education systems that still decree that the initiation to medicine involve tonnes of tutored words and consuming call schedules.
从医学院录取通知书被打开的那一刻起，学生们就热切地踏上了追求成为优秀医生特质的“黄砖路”：智慧、同情心和勇气。这些学生已经具备了这些特质，就像稻草人、铁皮人和狮子在出发前往奥兹国之前就拥有的一样，但在那些仍规定医学入门需要大量辅导课程和繁重值班安排的教育体系中，这些特质可能会消失。
