[quote=Anonymous]I think high-achieving Asian-Americans are also being hurt by a simultaneous trend of colleges (and the general public) beginning to question the value of test-taking. In the old days, it was simple. Getting into a decent college meant taking an entrance exam (assuming you were white and male). There is an increasing tendency to look at a whole basket of factors, slightly diminishing the singular value of GPA and test scores. I don't think that this is solely done to marginalize Asian-Americans, but it does have that effect. [/quote]
