Currently a surgical tech, and looking back semester 1 in pretty much every test there were at least a few questions that I knew the answer to because of my job; but that I'm positive we didn't even scratch in lecture or any of the assigned reading; and a lot of questions that we only kind of covered, but required a lot of reading between the lines which was also made way easier by my ST experience.

Idk how people who don't already have a medical background are doing it.

Yeah I had a slight leg up I worked as a CNA in the trauma/burn ICU all through college so a lot of practical skills were second nature but yeah we were expected to know a lot of things that weren't taught in lecture or practicals.
