I would share your concern if people were listening to those voices. But I have no reason to believe that this is a sentiment that is held by the deans of the colleges of medicine, or by the people responsible for entry into medicine. Those people who are responsible for ensuring who gets in are not under those kinds of pressures. So this may be an opinion that you are reflecting, but not one that is held by the colleges.
