We need all that we can get right now 😩😭 especially on Netflix

Hey! It’s me again. Did I go to medical school? Of course not! But, will that stop me from voicing my opinions on the medical education system? Absolutely not. Now here’s afew racist bad takes for your enjoyment 😁. How yall sound on this App

if you’re 34 and don’t have kids, you’re actually 28.

The crazy part about this Yale thing is that it just shows folks are going to complain about black people whether they meet the metric or not. It’s sad but not surprising. Through this whole thing we figured out that Yale admits about 10 black students per year. We also learned the median GPA and MCAT of black students admitted to Yale was a 3.88 and 518 MCAT. (These are insanely good scores for anyone. ) For those of you that don’t know Median means half have higher half have lower. Therefore 5 of out of the 10 or 50% had a HIGHER GPA and MCAT than 3.88 and 518. Hopefully the merit crew can all agree without question on their admission. Now, about the 5 that had lower. Many would argue as they have in my comments for the last 3 days “these are the people taking Someone else’s spot” But is that true compared to the data from the rest of the class? This table here shows the latest available data showing MCAT and GPA of all accepted students at Yale. It shows that of those accepted 60 had greater than a 518 MCAT and 56 had less than 518. So 52% had above and 48% had below a 518. Remember the split was 50/50 for black students. This is not a statistically significant difference in entrance standards. Nearly half of Yale’s entering class that year had an MCAT of less than 518. Only 5 out of the 56 who did were black. The other 51 were white students, Asian students etc. There were 10 students who applied with > 518 who didn’t receive admission. Why is the merit of the 51 from those groups who did get admissions not being called into question. Why is nobody saying that they stole someone else’s seat. Why is it that the merit calculator only comes out when the student is black student whether they reached that 95 percentile mark or not. Why are they only ones being scrutinized? Thats what I have an issue with. Either we scrutinize every student that got in below that mark, all 56 of them, or we admit the scrutiny was never really about merit. You have to Pick one. The reality is the admissions process is about so much more than just MCAT and GPA. If someone writes in your letter of recommendation that you’re the rudest most pompous person they’ve ever come in contact with you’re not going to get in. If you cannot hold a conversation in an interview and you are extremely awkward, you are not going to get in. physicians have to be smart yes but they also should be personable,compassionate, professional , empathetic and if you can’t show that through your letters, your activities, your personal statement, your interview because all you can do well is answer multiple-choice questions you are not going to get in and this goes for everyone black white whatever. A 528 means nothing if you can’t look a scared patient in the eye and make them feel safe. Admissions committees know that. Patients know that. The only people who don’t seem to know it are the ones counting other people’s scores instead of building their own résumés.

This new generation don’t know anything about this! 😭🔥

The average American reads at a 7th- to 8th-grade level. A bunch of them are in the comments arguing with this doctor.

oh no i’m single and 30 and sexy and can do whatever i want ahhhhhh they’re gonna kill me

@jamujawa1025 @JennE_Penny And what about it? What does that have to do with the argument?

@JennE_Penny At least these Asian youths that you bemoan aren’t rampaging through urban centers like wild pack animals.

Every other May I have to see some Asian kid with a full ride to Brown cry and moan cuz he didn’t get into Harvard and now he has to make it black peoples problem. You guys are raising assholes and leaving us to deal with them.

The SAT and IQ score conversations are funny because an Ivy League educated, White, Republican, president, legislature, and judiciary are fucking everything up.

@OncheonR @drterrysimpson It is absolutely not. Where are your studies and articles for these claims?

Are you kdding me? You are acknowledging the discrimination Jewish people faced yet you cannot also acknowledge the discrimination that Asians face as well? Why weaponize Asian success against us especially since the poverty and barriers Asians face are often more significant than those of black students?

Jewish success in America is a remarkable story of resilience, education, family cohesion, cultural emphasis on scholarship, and perseverance despite horrific discrimination. But the strange thing about these conversations is how often one minority group’s success gets weaponized against another group’s struggles, as though history distributes barriers evenly across populations, eras, geography, law, wealth, immigration patterns, and educational opportunity. The children of immigrants arriving with intact family structures and intense educational traditions may face very different obstacles than communities shaped by centuries of slavery, segregation, redlining, unequal schools, exclusion from wealth accumulation, or generational poverty. History is not a laboratory experiment with perfectly matched controls. And importantly, none of this changes the central point: medicine is trying to identify capable future physicians, not merely rank human beings by standardized testing performance detached from context, opportunity, and lived experience.

@drewS60288 @AnthonyGSupreme Well then maybe Asian students should apply elsewhere

@AnthonyGSupreme na, man, they will look at the stats and wonder why an Asian needed a 4.0 GPA to get admitted while black students are being admitted with a 3.3 GPA pretty freaking simple

20 black kids could apply for a school and 12 get admitted….100 Asian kids apply for the school and 50 of them get it…then they say shit like “look, blacks get accepted at higher rates”

@peterdacreep @AnthonyGSupreme And yet here you are

@AnthonyGSupreme The average black is 20 pts of iq below the country average. They are being let in as charity. Blacks are a dumb race of people.

Dr. Simpson has been on admissions committees during his career. So, this means that everyone who has devoted 2 minutes to this issue knows more than he does. 🙄 I empathize with the struggle, and I am glad he is fighting the good fight. And, he is absolutely right.

with age and experience u can spot a loser a lot quicker. which is why losers love dating young

@BooRadleys_Cat @cardiojaydoc02 It’s not if on average more Asian students are applying and getting accepted.

@cardiojaydoc02 Right but SFFA didn’t say you couldn’t not know race or have an optional diversity essay that’s a common misconception. The issue is a 2900% difference in admissions between asian and black students with the same MCAT/GPA is insane racism If you support that, you are a racist

There’s no colorblindness when your CV says Chen, Okafor, or Singh. There’s no colorblindness when your CV says ΩΨφ fraternity. There’s no colorblindness when your CV says Asian-American Student Society. We will not be whitewashed for others comfort. It’s who we are.

@ProfDBernstein @cardiojaydoc02 They make up a significant portion. Way too significant to claim discrimination

@cardiojaydoc02 You realize that Dr. Simpson is rather explicitly stating that there are too many Chens and Singhs in medical school?

@TopoGigio1925 @EnronJulie @AAGDhillon @CivilRights @TheJusticeDept You told them you read the study, since she gave you something you clearly don’t read now you’re just deflecting

@EnronJulie @AAGDhillon @CivilRights @TheJusticeDept To be clear, it's not my job to search for the evidence to support your argument. That's for you to do.

At Yale Medical School, a black applicant is 29 times more likely to be invited to interview than an Asian with equally strong academics.   Today, @CivilRights told Yale that its use of race in admissions is ILLEGAL—and that @TheJusticeDept will step in to enforce Title VI. justice.gov/opa/pr/justice…

@IH8YTrash @CheckAnfro @AAGDhillon @CivilRights @TheJusticeDept People that have never went to school commenting on what it takes to graduate

@CheckAnfro @AAGDhillon @CivilRights @TheJusticeDept It just means that even with a clear advantage, Blacks can’t even manage to graduate. Sounds like a skill issue.

It's hilarious to me that white ppl don't realize that they benefit from diversity programs. If you're a white person that is poor, identify as a woman, identify as member of the LGBTQ+ community, are from a rural community, are a veteran you benefit
