|
Date: September 3rd, 2010 1:08 AM Author: twisted mad-dog skullcap knife It's worse. Much worse. AA admits to top calibre research programs wouldn't be locks for most bottom tier schools if they were white.
Law school applicants (including black applicants) take a bunch of touchy-feely easy liberal arts classes in college, so there are quite a few AA candidates with high GPAs.
Med school applicants take large, somewhat difficult, curved, and blindly graded courses (and courses in which professors fail people -- no gentleman's B+). Whatever you want to blame the gap on, you can probably guess how that works out.
So they have to dig deeper and use far more blunt AA policies to get the desired quotas of each race.

Date: September 3rd, 2010 1:12 AM Author: Bat-shit-crazy Travel Guidebook Brunch i've heard this. but what do you think about the argument that, even though there is aa, every doctor has to pass the usmle's (or whatever they're called--not pre-med here, just interested in this subject) and therefore the ends justify the means?

But medical students are on average smarter than law students. It's still a minimum comp exam with a high pass rate. First time MD takers pass at all steps at a 97% rate. |

otoh it's kind of creepy to think that low 20's mcat is typical of black admits - that isn't likely to make anyone want a black doctor, all other things being equal |
|
Date: September 3rd, 2010 1:14 PM Author: Curious nursing home codepig CR, but if you were going to ask how you would have done without AA it's not just the 2% at the school you just missed that matters, it's also the 2% at every school higher than that which could add up.
But on the other hand maybe those schools wouldn't even be taking as many students without AA. |
