No, as referenced below, the original tweet by a first year student UCSF Med was removed. But original tweet and some of the drama from /r/premed below. Apparently figures were shared in privately in acceptance emails during height of protests. The rest of the numbers was Asian community extrapolating from acceptance and demographic data from past years. I guess we'll wait until official data updates to confirm.
>UCSF upcoming class reveals heavily shaped racial mixtures. Other schools will probably follow? “The stats are in: @UCSFMedicine's Class of 2024 is 23% Hispanic/Latinx, 22% Asian, 20% White, 19% Black, and includes 4 Native Americans” (twitter.com)
Definitely interesting. Only things I'd be concerned about when thinking about painting them with a racially biased admissions brush is that UCSF's class size is not large at 171 so a swing of 20% in 1 year is only 40 students. It would not be hard for me to believe that there are 40 Latino and black students who also scored 98%ile+ on the MCAT who equally "deserve" acceptance there, the med schools ranked #15-3ish all provide pretty much the same level of opportunity so the Asians missing from UCSF might have chosen a different top school. If it's a decline for 5 years straight I would be concerned about it but idk if 2 years is enough to state a trend.
