Saving Lives ?

Question

A college physics professor was explaining a particularly complicated concept to his class when a pre-med student interrupted him.

"Why do we have to learn this stuff?" the frustrated student blurted out.

"To save lives," the professor responded before continuing the lecture.

A few minutes later the student spoke up again. "So how does physics save lives?"

The professor stared at the student without saying a word. "Physics saves lives," he finally continued, "because it keeps the idiots out of medical school."

Answer 1

I reckon that's a good idea then or is it the other way around?

Lol, it is indeed, and I think that also geniuses need to learn further ...

Answer 2

Wait a minute!

Physics doesn't keep enough idiots out of medical school.  I've met some idiots practicing medicine.

Lol, T(h)ink, that is quite possible.

Well I never looked at it exactly like that Marianne, but the physics professor seems to be on a mission here!
