(ANSA) – ROME, 03 SEPT – The entrance exams to the Faculty of Medicine begin today at 12. The places available for this year add up to a total of 13,072. A total of 66,638 candidates signed up for the test, about 2,000 fewer candidates than last year. “There is a very strict and organized protocol that contemplates differentiated access, the distance in the classroom where the tests are carried out, masks, sanitation, control of spaces that is carried out by the university itself with the support of the national civil protection and all the other local institutions, so there is a very detailed organization that will allow the tests to be carried out in complete safety, guaranteeing the students, ”said the Minister of University and Research, Gaetano Manfredi, on the eve of the tests.

You criticize the students. “It is unacceptable – says Camilla Guarino of Link Coordinamento Universitario – that this selection be made to be a doctor, when our National Health Service is still in serious emergency due to lack of personnel with the pandemic still ongoing. The myopic measures taken during the Running of the Bulls are emblematic: in various regions of Italy retired doctors, military doctors or even recently graduated doctors without adequate training have been called to service. We are against any access barrier ”.

“It is unacceptable that a student leaving high school cannot freely choose his course of study” – says Alessandro Personè – from the National Executive of the Student Union – the tests do not really evaluate the preparation, but they want to select and reduce the number of future university students. “(ANSA).
