The gynaecologist who became a mechanic

A gynaecologist had *become fed up with malpractice insurance and paperwork, and was burned out.

Hoping to try another career *where skilful hands would be beneficial, he decided to become a mechanic.

* He went to the local technical college, signed up for evening classes, *attended diligently, and learned all he could.

* When the time of the practical exam approached, the gynaecologist prepared *carefully for weeks, and completed the exam with tremendous skill.

* When the results came back, he was surprised to find that he had obtained 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 wonder if there is an *error in the grade?"

* "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."



After a pause, the *instructor added, "I gave you an extra 50% because you did it all *through the exhaust, which I've never seen done in my entire career".
