People can and do flunk out of med school. Not in the same numbers as some other schools, maybe, but that's how it's set up. The system is basically designed so that most of the attrition happens before enrollment- the number of aspiring pre-meds vs. the number of actual med school matriculants is astronomically different. Once you are in, most schools worth their salt have multiple support systems to help you succeed, but sometimes it just doesn't work out.
Note that I said most, not all, schools. Even I, who actually applied, entered, and finished one medical school wouldn't be so arrogant as to think I could make blanket statements about all of them. But please, Titchou, tell us more about the things you've heard and seen and how all schools follow the same pattern.
