My top students with multiple waitlists/rejections were all asian males.  They ended up at (good) state schools but by and large were rejected by privates.[/quote]
raise hand.. that was my CS Asian male. Very high stats. Now at a state flagship with merit.[/quote]

They would have probably gotten amazing merit at second tier privates.

My Asian kid did, because they seek diversity.[/quote]
? the flagship is very diverse.[/quote]

[b]Flagships are usually HS 2.0[/quote][/b]
yes, that is the case for the vast majority of college kids in this country since most go to in state colleges.[/quote]

What an ignorant observation![/quote]

These are the dolts who make that claim about state schools all the time.  Meanwhile, their own kids were probably rejected from them so they had to send them to an expensive OOS school or private.  It's kind of amusing.[/quote]
? I am the PP who stated that most kids go to colleges in state. Mine does, as well.  That is the normal college experience.  I don't really care if someone wants to call it HS 2.0.  In some ways, it's great that they know some kids going in, rather than knowing no one.  They do still make new friends. Most in states are so large that they meet new people, and can easily avoid the HS 2.0 if they want to.
