[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Simply having a "hook" as a minority no way guarantees admission.[/quote] Not a guarantee, but it does increase one's chances. My DC's class had several very strong minority students. Their admissions were more impressive than those of their white or Asian peers with equally great credentials. The kids themselves admitted that their skin color gave them the edge. Their friends did not really begrudge their success... everyone worked equally hard for their goals and they realize that's the way the system works.[/quote]
