He means that if your parents attended that particular medical school or residency program, you get a guarantee of admissions, which is not true. Legacy may provide some boost, but not nearly a guarantee.

He is correct, though, that in all other situations, there is similarly no guarantee. Even very qualified candidates get turned away.
