The National Health and Medical Industry Union (Health and Medical Union) protested that the government gave medical students an opportunity to take the exam again, saying that it was a preferential treatment.

On the 3rd, the health and medical union made a statement and said, “I can’t help but shocked that the measures to allow medical students to re-appropriate national time have been promoted without expressing their will to expand medical school quotas and establish public medical schools.”
The health and medical union said, “The government has broken its own principles against the refusal of state time made by its own intentions.” It is an act of doing and undermining the principles of fairness and equity.”
“The real solution and finalization should not be the indulgence of reapplying at the national time, but the rapid promotion of expanding medical school capacity and establishing public medical schools.” I will.”
When the government announced plans to expand medical school quotas and establish a new public medical school, medical students protested and refused to take the doctor’s national examination. Of the 3172 test subjects, only 423 took the test.
The government maintained its position not to give them a chance to retake, but recently reversed its position. On the 31st of last month, the Ministry of Health and Welfare prepared and announced a test plan to rescue 2700 medical students who collectively refused the national practical test.
The exams scheduled for the second half of next year are divided into the first and second half of the year, and are conducted twice.
