[quote=Anonymous]It would be interesting to know what percentage of Asian American students apply as STEM and non-STEM. Numbers aside, it appears to me that a university would need to balance out admissions to be able to populate all of its schools and majors. So HYPOTHETICALLY using a fictional racial group as not to offend anyone, if 90 "qualified" Klingon Americans applied for 100 spots in a STEM major and 5 qualified Klingon Americans applied for 100 spots in a non-STEM major, wouldn't the numbers mean that not all Klingon American students will be accepted into the STEM major? I can't cite chapter in verse from my iPhone, but I have heard that most Asian-American applicants (especially from certain high schools)are applying to a handful of majors. IF that is true, wouldn't that impact the overall numbers of those accepted. [/quote]
