[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many people saying yes, but I’m curious, where’s the evidence? [/quote] “ According to research from Princeton University, students who identify as Asian must score, on average, 140 points higher on the SAT (out of 1600) than whites to have the same chance of admission to private colleges. They must score 450 points higher on the SAT than African-Americans. This is the “Asian Tax” that some refer to and, while this research’s direct quantification of bias might be interesting, the fact that Asians have to do better academically than others to get admitted into selective US colleges shouldn’t come as a big surprise to anyone somewhat familiar with college admissions.” https://thespikelab.com/the-asian-tax-in-college-admissions/ [/quote]
