Irrelevant race discrimination at entry implies people will want to do rational & relevant race discrimination later.
How racism looks like. I recommend keeping this in mind when you choose a doctor. https://www.reddit.com/r/slatestarcodex/comments/6ht96t/culture_war_roundup_for_week_following_june_17/dja5oey/ …pic.twitter.com/ftVX5uvMDg

I am in med school and I advise premeds. For lower-performing kids, I jokingly tell them to "become Black." I will create Rachel Dolezal

Discussion of affirmative action at UMSM. Black licensing exam scores far below other races. http://www.ceousa.org/attachments/article/653/MDMED.pdf …

Data from 1996. Cannot replicate because new test prep stuff (UWorld/Pathoma) --> massive Flynn Effect. But race/MCAT still predict STEP-1
-
Massive Flynn Effect since 1996? Can you elaborate?
-
Sorry, "Flynn Effect" probably bad word choice, but best way I could describe it.
-
Since 1996, people prepare a lot more for STEP-1, and use increasingly sophisticated preparation schemes and materials.

I just noticed, all asian points are lower than all black points here. Yikes. Why don't asians complain more?
-
Asians are the most discriminated against group for entrance testing. They seem to reply with even more test prepping and tiger moming.

@YeyoZa@fsnole1@charlesmurray Does anyone know if a similar data set exists regarding pass rates o national board exams for medicine? -
Hard to get that kind of data. Here's some limited data, similar to orig. tweet. http://www.ceousa.org/attachments/article/653/MDMED.pdf …

Thank you Emil! Yes, this is interesting. It seems that this kind of data should be freely accessible but I can imagine why it isn't.

I suspect the disparity is not as huge for those who actually finish their studies. Still, a gross injustice & bad for competent blacks.

I wonder if any other nation keeps such data? This sort of info becomes more useful to know as nations become more diverse...

Wonder what the numbers of applicants are. Might that diminish the chart value if there are more orange bar apps than green?

So according to this I should obviously pick an Asian or white doctor since only the very top of them are getting accepted into med school..

Also translates to: it sucks to be Asian or white and wanna be a doctor.
