No problem. You're of course free to go to whatever doctor/dentist/vasectomist you prefer.

are only minorities being given extra credit? do all schools do this? where is this epidemic of minority doctors being having thier licenses revoked? i'd like to see some statistics from a reputable source. until then, one med school teacher doesn't hold much sway on my opinion.

No, a lot of female students used to get it as well. However, most of the ones that are there now EARNED their way in. As it should be.
And no, the historically minority schools don't do it.
By the way, as ustwo pointed out, it's not ALL minority students--some of them are highly competent. To refer to an "epidemic" of revocations is an exaggeration of what I said.
Good luck trying to get an official breakdown of license revocations by race, though. The screams from Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would be earsplitting. Although they wouldn't be too concerned about Asian students.
I'll also repeat that there are steps that can be taken to forestall a revocation.
