[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The article isn’t very useful with respect to understanding the impact of preferential admissions for kids from the top 0.1%. I couldn’t see anywhere where it stated actual numbers. Sure the kids of the top 0.1% are twice as likely to be admitted but its impact can only be gauged if they share the actual numbers or proportion of admitted students who fall into this category. If 100 kids were admitted from the top 0.1% and 50,000 from 60-99%, it had minimal impact. If 5,000 kids from the top 0.1% were admitted then it’s clearly problematic. [/quote] but who really cares about the very small number of ultra rich? It may be a good or bad thing, but there is a clear bias towards the lower half of the income bracket and again sthe upper half (half, not the 0.1%)[/quote]
