Why? Serious question. Why is anyone for diversity? It's not normal. It's forced. When is that ever a good combination?
If you're for diversity, then you are for the nonsense your friends daughter is experiencing.


It depends on where you live. I live in a Houston suburb. It it totally normal here. My hospital leadership team has men, women, whites, blacks, Asians, and Indians. We look like where we live and also like our patients. It would be weird it all our management were white.

Why? Seriously, what is the benefit of diversity for diversity's sake? What does it give us? I'm all for diversity of ideas, but why is diversity of skin color or ethnicity a good thing? Especially when diversity trumps other qualifying characteristics, such as in the case of your friend's daughter.


I’d be perfectly fine with an America with 1970s America demographics

The country is being ruined by radicals and their passive, indoctrinated enablers. Merit and intelligence and talent mean little, if anything. It is a disgusting state of affairs.

We need to ridicule her for only applying to one med school. If she isn't a resident of Alabama
He didn't say either. Maybe she is an Alabama resident and that was the school she wanted to attend or it was the cheapest. Now she may have to go to a far pricier private school. Waste of money.

I know of the same thing that happened at LSU this year....it's pissing off a lot of physicians.


She had the same profile. 4.0. 80 th percentile, so top 20% on the MCAT.

Got passed over for a trans woman ( male to female) 35 th percentile who was black.

The AMA is trash. I have heard more people are going the D.O. route because stupid shite like this.



Only about 15% or so of practicing MDs belong to the AMA so 85% of MDs agree with you.

Ha ha ha ha she deserved to get passed over! She should have known to apply to at least 50 schools. She had this coming.

Matriculation statistics are still published every year.

Basically Asians and whites have a much higher standard. But despite that they still make up the bulk of physicians.

Schools do actually do this. If you are a veteran and apply for med school with the bare minimum requirements they'll pick you over someone with better grades.

But i dont think people understand how much depends on your entrance interviews. And never ever apply to just one school.

Assuming this story is real, LSU Health exists.

I never said that is what you said either.

But look at that pic. White women are extremely well represented in the typical UAB Med School class. Won't pull up every single photo of every single class to prove my point. Just feel free to Google it.

People who think they're hot shite, like prospective med students, dream up a lot of shite to rationalize why other people don't think they're hot shite (e.g. "They're just jealous.") Not saying that this girl from this unverified and anecdotal story in the OP is out-and-out lying about why she didn't get accepted. Just saying I'm taking it with a grain of salt.
