[quote=Anonymous]Him being Asian + Male certainly hurts a lot. However, the US has never been a meritocracy. The closest thing to meritocratic admissions in the US is Berkeley, the rest of the UCs and Caltech. Otherwise the top privates have heavy bias for legacy, donor money and the otherwise wealthy (welcome, equestrian athletes), and publics have regional biases (rural is easier), donor money (Michigan, UVA), etc. etc. He should've definitely applied to Michigan, UVA, Rice, etc. though and probably could gotten in.
