96% 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.
