    Simply looking at GPA and MCAT scores of admitted medical students reveals black and latino applicants are admitted with far lower scores than their white and asian peers.

    Now, this may be unpopular, but I don't care about diversity when I'm looking for a doctor, I'm looking for competency. Admitting students with significantly lower credentials in an effort to boost "diversity" is misguided and unsustainable.
