This feeling will only intensify in your Post graduate days. Taking up Medicine means being behind for 10 years of your life ( income wise ) . But when you start practise, treating & healing --it will all seem worthwhile. True story !

To those with MBBS degree -
You are well equipped to build your clinical skills & treat patients the most Scientific & Sound manner possible .
Neither is your knowledge insufficient, nor are you redundant .
& yes - you certainly aren't Quacks or equivalent to one.
I am not calling an MBBS graduate a quack.
I am merely pointing out that the knowledge level will be more or less equivalent.
Feel free to get offended, but you simply cannot change the reality of medicine today.
