Re: Jewish enrollment in U of P

I bet the medical and dental schools are still 90% Jewish.

You are way out of date my friend!

Incoming medical school class at U Penn is:

36% Asian
13% Black
13% Latino

So 62% “minority”

I’d guess ~20% Jewish.

Nope, I don't think that's true. In fact, my son has been seriously considering dental school and he has already been told he "the wrong color" despite his straight-As in college. He has been told that dental schools are taking "minority" students almost exclusively. What this means in practice is that Asian, Middle-Eastern and Indian students are the vast majority of those accepted. It's a scandal.
