RACISM: The fact that black doctors don't have to meet the same high standards as white

If a black person can't succeed in America in this age they are simply a lazy, extremely low IQ, worthless drain on society.

Even the ones who benefit from DEI should be against it. You’re doomed to a life of people doubting your competence.

The Hispanic one is especially dumb. Anyone can claim to be Hispanic.

If they’re going to lower the standards for practicing medicine to serve some DEI quota then just don’t accept medical advice or treatment from a black doctor. Would rather be called a racist instead of dead because of delusions of liberal wokeness.

Glad that AI will be handling much of healthcare diagnostics and treatment procedures pretty soon. I’m smelling lawsuits re the whole DEI hiring system in jobs where lives are directly affected by personal expertise and ability. Doctors and Pilots at the fore.

I know we aren’t concerned with honesty or accuracy here but the tweet indicates nothing about practicing medicine, only medical school admittance.

I guess if you just insist on only white doctors you are really increasing your chances of having someone good.

Of course it’s racist. But it’s against whites so it’s ok.

Had a consult with an orthopedic surgeon. Younger black guy who I really liked but I kept thinking of this very thing.
That’s not fair for him. But it’s a real concern.

People that shouldn't be admitted to medical school make great doctors?

I’ve seen similar data on Mcat scores for admitted students by race.
Dude. Some of the median admitted scores for black students were absolutely shocking. Like back then the scores were double digit and if I remember right the average score for admission OVERALL was 28-30 to most schools but 30+ was the bar to be confident in getting an acceptance.
I’ve seen average score for black students who are accepted being in the 24-25 range. It’s only 4-5 points but in reality that was a HUGE difference.

Do you believe getting accepted to medical school is the same as passing medical board exams? Because that’s what you’re smugly implying.

AI can be manipulated just like a human.

They moved the board exams from scoring to pass/fail because:
A) these same students were failing at too high of a rate
B) they didn't want the data to show the correlation between the poor board scores and the poor mcat scores

Right because low math scores make the best accountants.
Low reading comprehension makes for top flight lawyers.
Slow runners, Olympic caliber sprinters.
The best chefs can’t smell or taste.
You make an excellent point indeed.
I’m sure they hit the extra gear when REALLY challenged to learn.
