I graduated with a 4.6/5.0 in physics.

Eff off you racists going on about unqualified admits.

We catch up

You are talking about so long ago that there was probably low key segregation still going on where you were from.
You must have seen real racism, how do you throw around the term so loosely?

Of course you will—you can't get in!

It was mid 60s.
Yes there was de facto housing segregation.
Having seen racism, I know what it looks like, even when people try to be "subtle." There is real racism in this thread.

Look for it. It might be "difficult and take[s] hard work."
Depending on the "cultural values" now looking through the "fifty year" lens may be enlightening.

For the incoming class of 2028, about 16 percent of students are Black, Hispanic, Native American and Pacific Islander, compared to a baseline of about 25 percent of undergraduate students in recent years, the announcement said.

The comparison to the class of 2027 was even more dramatic. The percentage of Black students enrolled dropped to 5 percent from 15 percent, and the percentage of Hispanic and Latino students dropped to 11 percent from 16 percent. White students made up 37 percent of the new class, compared to 38 percent last year.

The percentage of Asian American students in the class rose to 47 percent from 40 percent.

This is pretty terrible. It seems that black and hispanic students aren't taking higher level math classes in high school. Certainly compared to white and asian students. 5 percent for blacks is very low. But the more notable number is the decline in latino students. Elite colleges are not looking like America going forward. Why aren't blacks and hispanics taking Calculus BC?

How many black and Hispanic students go to top/well-funded high schools to take these courses? The bulk of minorities at these institutions are rich or educationally-privileged, because you need to be. No inner city child really makes it to the gates, even before the end of AA

Not really.

Stuyvesant in NYC is about 75% Asians and almost all of them are from low income family with parents who are not fluent in English attending crappy NYC public schools and yet manages to gain admission to Stuyvesant.

Another inconvenient truth.

Stuyvesant is a magnet prep school that is nationally famous for its rigorous courseload. I’m talking about inner city public schools, not magnet programs lmao.

also Stuyvesant is “inconveniently” majority Asian, because NYC public schools are insanely segregated. There are many other magnet schools outside of TJ and Stuy that are very diverse.

I think you are missing the whole point of the post or intentionally being obtuse.

I guess I’m missing the entire point, because I believe I addressed it. How many Asians in local NYC public schools that aren’t educationally privileged getting into top schools? It’s just very uncommon. I can’t believe we are arguing whether you need to go to a good school to go to an elite college, but here we are.

What is this disgusting racism from affirmative action defenders?

You call yourselves progressive?

Well, it actually tracks. Progressive are insanely racist to asians and jews. Only thing is, there are no jewish quotas and colleges apologized for them. All these racists are still trying to justify asian quotas.

Really I mean it. Once the schools become majority Asian, no one else will want to attend, and the prestige will pass on to other institutions, that Asians will then seek to strive to get into. Happens to neighborhoods. The neighborhoods with good schools become majority Asian, everyone else moves on, then the Asians will follow behind.

Cool story bro.

You’re just so salty. I get it.
