Lemme see your transcripts, Doc. I ain't trusting my life to anything less than an A+, honor roll student.

I've seen too many stupid A+ students who just memorise without actually understanding the material.

Pray, tell, does anyone know how to read and understand a course material and pass an exam on it without memorising?

In today's world of abundant distractions, reading is hard enough, reading to understand while loading your brain with other interactions seems to be an insurmountable task.

I am not a medical student, so this may be a stupid question, but if the study material is something like the name of each muscle in the body, what is there to understand and not just memorize?

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
