Article Synopsis
- There is a significant lack of progress in enrolling underrepresented racial and ethnic groups, such as American Indian, Black, and Hispanic students, in medical schools, with various barriers influencing their interest in medicine that are not well-studied.
- The study aimed to identify and analyze the specific barriers that MCAT examinees from different racial and ethnic backgrounds encounter, utilizing survey data linked to medical school application outcomes.
- Findings revealed distinct racial and ethnic disparities, with a notable percentage of American Indian, Black, and Hispanic examinees reporting lower levels of parental education, and these groups also showed reduced likelihoods of applying to medical school compared to White examinees.
