[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of my coworkers' wife, who is an AO at an Ivy, said this to me at the company last year Christmas party:

How to get rejected by Ivies:
- I have 4.0 GPA with 12 AP classes
AO response:  There are 1500 Asian kids with the same achievement

- I am the violin first chair in the orchestra,
AO response:  There are 1200 Asian kids with the same achievement

- I score 1570+ on the SAT
AO response:  There are 1500 Asian kids with the same score as you

- I am an accomplished pianist
AO response:  There are 800 Asian kids that can play piano just as good as you, if not better

- I found a nonprofit to help the homeless:
AO response:  There are 500 Asian kids that also do the same thing like you

How to get accepted by Ivies:

- I can play guitar like Slash of Guns 'n Roses. I can show you how I play "November Rain" or "sweet child o mine"
AO response:  Now that's unique.  We would love to have you at the university

- I have a TikTok influencer with over 2M followers 
AO response:  Amazing.  You know how to monetize your influence.  It means more exposure for the university.  Welcome to the university.

You get the idea...[/quote]

Yes...I got the idea.  You are being screwed if you are Asian-American by the AO.

So, you can be a OnlyFans ho and call yourself an influencer who has monitized herself.  And then you can get in Ivy schools.

I think we get the idea so well that Asian-Americans have started going to in-state flagships with full tuition paid by the university.   They have raised the profile of these state universities (looking at you UMD) and now the average non-Asian Joe is not getting admission in the state schools.  Who is impacting most?  Well, the OnlyFans influencer.

If an Asian-American does not get into any Ivy school, it is because they are no longer applying to Ivies, no longer applying to private schools and mostly applying to in-state flagships in sought after STEM courses.  Oh, and the tuition they are saving by getting essentially free college education is being invested so that they can become wealthy.

I love that the powers that be are too dumb to realize how Asians have made lemonade with the lemons handed to them.  Putting obstacles in the path of Asians always backfires.  :lol: [/quote]
