Why I would prefer open group exams for younger patients over private individual ones

1. They're educational, promote a positive and healthy body image, and they build a sense of camaraderie with one's peers. You also have something of a support system.

2. They're less tedious and boring. At least you have other folks to talk to besides the doc.

3. In the case of the boys and young men, it satisfies their natural urge to show off both to each other and any interested females present.

4. Examinees feel less vulnerable and alone.

That's my personal view. What are you guys' feelings and insights on this?
