well, being smart and being a doctor may not be intrinsically related, but meeting the requirements for med school have alot to do with "smarts" and drive level. From reading this guy's post, it doesn't sound like motivation is her issue, so its probably "smarts" related.
your hinting that everyone's mental capacity for scientific subjects is the same is also narrow minded and ignorant.
as stated above, the girl probably needs to go into a 4 year pre-med program.
