You might be misinterpreting what he's saying. The evaluation is important but obsessing over the evaluation is counterproductive. Telling her not to worry about it will make her a better doctor if doing so removes a distraction from her training.
The second part was completely crazy though. If only for showing us a window into his own mind, what he cares about. It's like Ibram Kendi who says that black students should not be judged based on their accomplishments, but based on how much they want to know.
The window into his own mind is that he is a former medical student who once suffered from performance anxiety and wanted to defuse that tension on her first day. Don't twist that into the worst possible interpretation of his words unless you have some evidence to believe that is true.
By not being such a bloody autist that I would rules lawyer my way out of comprehending the meaning of a sentence. It's a tweet, not a computer program.
"...to not worry about trying to impress me because she’d get a glowing eval for simply showing up and being interested" does not mean that she'd still get a glowing eval if she punched one of the patients. It doesn't mean she'd still get a glowing eval if she ate all the medication. It doesn't mean she'd still get a glowing eval if she started screaming racial slurs at him. It means only that she'd still get a glowing eval if she doesn't obsess over trying to impress her supervisor.

I agree with the first part.

How are you going to spin this?
