Question

[deleted822563]

One of my friends friend apparently applied as African American ethnically when he was in fact indian. He ended up getting into multiple medical schools, and while I am not saying its because of the ethnic group he identified as, he had previously applied year before as Indian and gotten no response. I was wondering if medical schools actually verify ethnicity and if this is actually a common occurrence, because I was concerned/confused when hearing this story.

Try harder...

Maybe he was lying to you? Med schools would know he's a reapplicant, and check his previous file.

It's happened once before, with Mindi Kahling's brother.

We don't do DNA tests on applicants. We expect people to be honest.

Yeh hoping it was just a rumor I was concerned when hearing about it

As I recall he left med school after his first year.
