You can’t have separate entrances for your establishment based on what folks look like, the group you prefer getting better service doesn’t make it equality.
- sagarm 2y agoI know right? Black applicants with high MCAT scores were rejected in favor of white applicants with low MCAT scores! Just unbelievable.
- NotYourLawyer 2y agoUnbelievable because it’s the opposite of what the link shows?
- sagarm 2y ago96% acceptance rate for black candidates with high MCAT scores, but a nonzero acceptance rate for white candidates with low scores. Maybe there are other factors, and they're correlated with the buckets being used here?
- NotYourLawyer 2y agoIt’s not the case that every single black applicant gets admitted before a single white/Asian applicant does. The point is that it’s much, much easier for a black applicant to get admitted. A black applicant with GPA and MCAT scores in the lowest bucket still has a 56% chance of admission. That’s on par with an Asian applicant who has GPA and MCAT scores in the highest bucket.
