In the tall tale that he is spinning on conservative news this week, Chokalingam neglects a few critical details. First of all, Chokalingam fails to emphasize that he was rejected from or waitlisted to most of the medical schools he applied to: Columbia University, Cornell University, George Washington University, Mount Sinai, University of Nebraska, Nobay, University of Pittsburgh, University of Rochester, University of Pennsylvania, Washington University, University of Wisconsin, Yale University, and Case Western.

should be noted that the author of that blog post doesn't seem to know much about the med school application process. even 15-20 years ago a 3.1/31 applicant is only marginally competitive for most of those schools, so getting rejected from them doesn't say much, even considering the race thing.

i don't doubt the veracity of this thing, really. identifying as black helped this guy a lot, but so what? medical schools by and large have a mission to produce a physician workforce that reflects the patients they serve. it's not exactly a secret. i can't imagine this story changing many minds on race-conscious admission policies

I didn't watch it very regularly last season, but still, that's too bad.

I'm watching it on Hulu now and they just played an ad for the Church of Scientology.

They also keep playing the commercial with those two ladies who have an online business educating kids about bugs. They're holding centipedes and stuff it's too much

The new season itself is also garbage
