Gomez,

A friend’s DS is in the program you are referring to. I have heard the same about their combined med program. Even for TCNJ/UMDNJ, 7 year program, I agree with you that ~90% kids are Asian. Of the matriculants, 13/23 are Indian. However, when you see the link above for UMDNJ total matriculants, the % even out. I have heard same happens at Jefferson’s also.

The med schools are able to even out the total numbers based on applicants in the regular admission cycle.
