Consternation, anger, disappointment … in a few hours, students from the Paris end who chose PACES (common first year health studies) as a vow on APB had to go through a whole range of emotions … Explanations in 3 acts.
Act I. Wednesday, May 4, 2016, an article in the World them that they will be drawn. Since January, the PACES was at limited capacity in industry in Ile-de-France. Everyone knows. But on Wednesday, the rector of Paris loose a figure: he declares to distribute 7,500 places (excluding those reserved as part experiments) within 7 universities in the region in September 2016, no more Problem: in 2015, 8143 students were divided by the Sadep (InterAcademy Service student assignment). No need to be a future scientific bachelor with honors for the calculation. it’s been over 600 students to flunk the door to their dream die without even being able to rub the midst of trials and year-end the draw is revealed indeed the only legal to select university.
the union UNI condemns “this arbitrary decision “and added” It is illogical to refuse excellent candidates and accept candidates whose capabilities do not allow to succeed in medicine. ” A view shared by the deans of the faculties. For its part, accuses the UNEF: “The choice to sharply reduce the carrying capacity and thus trigger the raffle procedure was done knowingly by the university presidents, to the detriment of the right to studies graduates. ” By the way, forget the unions in their releases other sectors which recruit the PACES: dentistry, midwifery and pharmacy
East. ?. -what “it will pass”
Act II Thursday, May 5, 2016, Thierry Mandon, the Secretary of State for higher Education, the promises in Liberation: “I would do anything for the draw to reach the first year of medicine never exists: there is no more stupid as a means of selection above to access highly selective channels ” . The rector of Paris only has to back-pedal. In a statement, he announced that “the first allocation of 7,500 places should be enough”, and will “be adjusted as necessary.” It also intends to “avoid recourse to draw and enable new bachelor Ile able to follow the studies of his choice.”
Act III. So what? In July, will you or not your place PACES? According to the Rector, Ile 8,000 students chose PACES vow in 1 of PDB in 2016. Substantially as in 2015. “In theory, all students will have access to the PACES” says Rémi Patrice, the Vice President of medical studies ANEMF (national Association of medical students of France). While stressing the extreme limit to which side facs reception capacities are.
“This can happen this year, but we do know that in September when enrollment [if there is no pulling out beforehand, note]. We then know the rate “evaporation” of graduates assigned to a university that finally will prefer to enroll in another APB out die (Sciences Po, schools …) “nuance Frédéric Dardel, president of the Paris-Descartes, one of the most facs” saturated “. However, it is not said that your assignment is not changed in September …
And the problem remains
If the threat of selection seems ruled out for this year, the problem of PACES remains: the number of graduates attracted by the sector exceeds the number of places available. Besides the physiotherapy students will now have to go through college only to access their studies. In addition, increasing the number of candidates also means increasing the selection contest … How changer ? Students, universities, doctors, politicians think about it a long time … But between the pre-selection earlier this year, experiments chains “alter-PACES”, the development of gateways, etc., nothing was really sliced.
