Studying Medicine Without Entrance Examination and Photos Before Plastic Surgery: The Case of Mobina Nematzadeh

Public Reaction: A Divided Opinion
The reaction to Mobina Nematzadeh’s request was mixed. On one hand, many supporters argued that her dedication to representing Iran on the international stage, coupled with her impressive achievements, justified an exception. They saw her case as a unique situation where her contribution to the nation in sports should be rewarded with opportunities in academia.
On the other hand, critics viewed her request as an example of privilege and inequality. They argued that allowing Mobina to bypass the entrance exam would set a dangerous precedent, undermining the importance of the Konkur as a fair and standardized measure of academic capability. This perspective was particularly strong among students who had spent years preparing for the highly competitive entrance exam, seeing Mobina’s potential exemption as a form of injustice.
Institutional Responses: Universities and Government Officials Weigh In
The request by Mobina Nematzadeh also prompted responses from key educational and governmental institutions. Seyyed Mohammad Moghimi, the president of Tehran University, expressed a willingness to admit Mobina but did not specify whether this would apply to the field of medicine. He mentioned that she could continue her education in the field of physical education at any university she desired. This statement was seen as a diplomatic way of recognizing Mobina’s achievements while avoiding direct confrontation with the established educational norms.
However, Hossein Zwanatti, the president of Tehran University of Medical Sciences, took a firmer stance, stating that admission to the medical field would strictly follow existing rules, and as such, Mobina’s request would be denied. This clear rejection highlighted the institution’s commitment to maintaining the integrity of its admission process.
Despite this, Ehsan Azimi Rad, the spokesperson of the Education and Research Commission of the Parliament, suggested that there were no legal obstacles preventing Mobina from studying medicine without the entrance exam, creating further ambiguity and fueling the ongoing debate.
