There are several reasons why this is the case. First, residency is done through a match, so it's a very different process than applying for medical school. Second, the interview day is way more important, and it typically starts the night before with a dinner with current residents and then lasts the entire following day. A lot of the decisions are based on this visit (just as they are with faculty applicants). Third, all med students take Step exams, with scores that are heavily emphasized and used to compare students and their medical knowledge, so the school itself is less emphasized (though scores are going away for Step 1 starting in 2023, so the school may receive more emphasis (though what will likely happen is Step 2 will receive the increased emphasis)).
You are wasting your time explaining anything to that jagoff. He's just mad that he can't ban you for disagreeing with him like he could when he was the deaconsports.com hall monitor.
