GYNECOLOGIST

A gynecologist had become fed up with malpractice insurance and was on
the verge of being burned out. Hoping to try another career where
skillful hands would be beneficial, he decided to change careers and
become a mechanic. He found out from the local technical college what
was involved,signed up for evening classes, attended diligently, and
learned all he could. When the time for the practical exam approached,
the gynecologist prepared carefully for weeks, and completed the exam
with tremendous skill. When the results came back, he was surprised to
find that he had received a score of 150%. Fearing an error, he called
the instructor, saying "I don't want to appear ungrateful for such an
outstanding result, but I wondered if there had been an error which
needed adjusting." The instructor said, "During the exam, you took the
engine apart perfectly, which was worth 50% of the total mark. You put
the engine back together again perfectly, which is also worth 50% of
the mark." The instructor went on to say, "I gave you an extra 50%
because you did all of it through the muffler."
