I read the article. And several of the original links the article cited. In absolutely none of them does it say he previously applied to SLU as an Asian American and was rejected. I read the mediaite one (which tries to imply it, which is a pretty basic tactic of biased journalism and is very easy to spot with competent critical reading skills), and the NY Post one, and his original post on his website. And nowhere does it say he applied to SLU, or ANY of those schools as an Asian American.

So yes, I would say the author of the link I posted did read the article, and correctly drew the conclusion that he didn't apply to any medical schools as an Asian American.
