At a time when advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion
in veterinary medicine is at or near the top of the strategic
priority list for virtually all veterinary medical organizations,
whether academic or in the industry, this situation is extremely
concerning. Any use of such a biased measure as a foundation
for admission decisions can only be expected to yield a
biased selection process – albeit unintentional. And clearly,
continued reliance on GRE™ for admission decisions will be
one important ongoing source of unintended institutional
racism, sexism, classism, and/or elitism across academic
veterinary medicine – imparting unintended bias against those
candidates who might be marginalized based on race, ethnicity,
gender, socio-economic status, or geography.
