There is another issue. My son who usually does well on exams scored 218 on step 1 and 232 on step 2. He has received the following 5 interviews…syracuse family med (we don t usually interview SGU, the program run by an LGBT man who has hired mostly women for the last 3 years. BROOKLYN Hospital em…we hire those representing the community…1 caucasian male in last years class..after doing a rotation there..he didn t even get an interview. Brookville hosp in florida..”You lost a lot of points..said a georgia lst year resident interviewing..because you talk fast and talk with your hands…had i known you were from New York …tell people that up front. Brookville also hires primarily females. He is on the wrong side of diversity hires! In addition the next batch is accepted as pass/fail! My cardiologist and another school..portsmouth general hospital said straight out that they need to hire a diverse group. My son has no med insurance and no employment and at this time and $600,000 in student loan debt. We have paid $3000 each round in trying to get a match. Isn t diversity giving all a chance based on abilities? This process needs investigation. Dec. 27, 2022, at 9:29 am Reply
