if the students with poor entry scores are passing their boards and are graduating, what is the problem then?


The problem is that American medical schools have limited space and are turning away white or Asian students with better scores and superior academic performance to make space for those poor performing students.

3.5 and a 29 MCAT are very good stats.


Not for Asian and white applicants, according to the charts posted.

There is more to being a doctor than those tests.

These students also have the opportunity to showcase themselves in interviews.

Are the Asian and white students lacking there?

Why aren't these medical schools filled with black and brown kids then? If the standards are so low for these kids?

Stop trying to put whites and Asians in the same class. Your tables clearly say white also get preferential treatment over Asians, not just blacks.
