It stinks that there's an admission bias against Asians, but I can't stand how they always jump to blaming black people/AA :aicmon:

Never have smoke for white people legacy admissions/endowment admissions :martin:
Poor and working class Asian kids do incredibly well in admissions, as do Asian kids who participate in sports, extracurricular activities, have interesting stories, or actually end up well-rounded;

The same as every one else.

There’s just continued to be a pipeline of specific groups of East Asian kids, many of whom are upper-middle class, upper-class, or who are first-generation in the most tortured way possible (parents are immigrants but they were white collar professionals in their countries).

Asians get screwed in college admissions, it seems like they try to limit how many of them get in at schools.


You're begging the question. You can only say they get screwed if you assume the criteria they want to determine college entry are the ideal ones. What if being put into position to attend elite high schools and score well on an arbitrary multiple choice test isn't a meaningful way to decide who should and shouldn't get into college?

Lowkey, might be easier to get into MIT and Carnegie over UCLA. UCLA is attractive due to destination, sports and education all in one.
He never mentioned UCLA.

"The top-tier schools I applied to were MIT, CalTech, Princeton, Harvard, Carnegie-Mellon and U.C. Berkeley," he said.

Caltech is Caltech

Berkeley is California if you thinking in terms of college football. @DropTopDoc The full name of Berkeley is University of California at Berkeley. Berkeley is a suburb of San Francisco.

UCLA mean University of California Los Angeles. I guess they got a satellite in Berkeley but when ppl say Berkeley, they mean the one the has the California football team.

The way he talking he sound like UCLA is beneath him. :sas2:

Republicans and conservatives hate the fact that there are more black people in prominent roles, ie doctors, lawyers, engineers, they know slowly but surely black people are inching their way up the ladder and it gets them furious and angry so they go after affirmative action using other asian minorities in the guise of fighting for fairness when they simply want to reduce black people opportunities and relegate them back to second class status.
Which party do you think openly supports this guy and his nonsense? Its the republicans and the right wing, no sane black person who isnt a self hating c00n can be a conservative and vote for the republicans, you have to hate yourself, they defended zimmerman, justified tamir rice death, raising funds for daniel penny the marine who murdered that innocent black man in cold blood and you think they are for black people? Please dont insult our intelligence.
If you are black and are supporting the republican party you are an absolute disgrace and have no self respect

This is :duck:

Dude just didn't do enough extra curricular activities. A perfect SAT score has never guaranteed a spot at an IVY league school. In the 90s the College I went to was predominantly white, but the head of admissions was black and relatively young. The black students got to know her and would hang out with her and her family. One night she told us how College admissions works: Gender balancing played the biggest role in admissions. Women made up the large pool of qualifying applicants. If you just chose based on merit, you'd have a student body of 80:20 women to men. If a school did that, then the top female applicants wouldn't apply or just attend elsewhere, as many want the possibility of meeting their husband in college, and that ain't happening at a school that looks like a WNBA training camp. That meant men of all races received preferential treatment (Yep, White men benefit from affirmative action in college admissions). White and Asian women were discriminated against most. Asian women were discriminated against not just for their gender but their race. Schools didn't want too large an Asian student body. So this dude simply didn't cut the mustard.
That was the 90s, surely surely things changed?

Uni I went to was 70:30 guys too girls, it was a mad house of a sausage fest

People not seeing how messed up this is.....Black folks built alot of these ivy leagues and after going through segregation for hundreds of years where non-whites couldn't even step foot into these schools...Black people fought so that all groups got the chance to become students, and instead of being thankful these scumbags turn around and try making it harder for black youth to get in there.

How many asians ain't graduate from ivy leagues....29% of the admitted students in Harvard have been Asians and you don't see them moving the needle because they so docile and obdient....when you get black people in them shyts they not only smart, but have charisma and character....Look at Obama at what he did....what asian doing it big like that?

If you see a black person at Berkeley, they live in Oakland and work in the cafeteria.

These numbers are pre segregation bad, southern schools should be pissed that a carpetbagger had the audacity to get in their face and accuse them of racism. @KBadd
