I want a doctor who knows what he or she is doing, regardless of race. According to
Medical School Graduation and Attrition Rates (2007), 6.7% of blacks flunked out of medical school, compared to 0.7% for whites and 0.9% for Asians.

Race based admissions are racist.
There’s no two ways about it.

These schools are putting race ahead of the well being of patients and generating competent physicians.
Wonderful.

Most of the doctors I see on TV are Black.
I guess you can interpolate that to mean about 70% of admissions must be Black.

The real problem is this move breaks the rice bowl of race hustlers like Michelle Obamas non-job at University of Chicago.

Because when it comes to life and death, the color of the doctor (if there is one) is more important than the competency.

When youre sick or need surgery, do you want the best qualified doctor or an affirmative action candidate selected because of a racist admissions committee

Medical student diversity is necessary to prepare physicians to provide care to an increasingly diverse population and to address significant health disparities,
Bull crap! My nephew had to wait a year before the University of Michigan Med. School would accept him since they were already filled up with not only minorities but foreign nationals..........

My guess is that Medical Schools are worried that they may end up being LEGALLY LIABLE FOR DAMAGES caused by unqualified graduates that, SOLELY BECAUSE OF RACE, the schools recruited and fed into the medical profession over more highly qualified candidates.
And, IMHO, they SHOULD be liable.

“..6.7% of blacks flunked out of medical school...”
And that’s after med schools do everything they can (special tutoring, etc.) to avoid having any student flunk out. Flunking out often results in a permanent vacancy in that class as it progesses, and they want/need the continued revenue.
