[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]It is largely a myth[/b]. And depends on what college. More relevant question: Is your child attending an under-resourced high school with a high poverty rate? Doing relatively well despite that disadvantage? Will they be the generation to go to college in your family? A student with somewhat lower standardized test score but strong grades, outstanding rec letters may still be admitted at some more selective colleges. [/quote] Except that it's not. The fact is that you are at a disadvantage if you are Asian, and you have a clear advantage if you are Black or Hispanic.[/quote] If you're comparing Asians to other groups, why did you not include whites in those who have a clear advantage? I can guarantee you there will be way more white students with lower scores than Asians, than black or Hispanics when looking at overall numbers. [/quote]
