[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He’s wrong. Look at the UC system it’s been legacy and race blind for a while though athletic recruitment is still there. The demographics bear out that affirmative action isn’t in place. The top ranked schools are over 45% Asian, under 5% AA, 20% white and the rest are Hispanic or other. A lot of mixed Asian and white kids choose the other category. Affirmative action is NOT taking seats. Anything under an unweighted 4.0 and weighted 4.2 ( UC cap ) puts you squarely in the waitlist category of mid tier UCs. Having perfect GPA stats, great ECs and well written PIQs still puts you into a lottery and you are likely to end up in the lower tier schools.[/quote] UCB and UCLA are very biased against kids from the Bay Area. But that is fine as their mandate is to serve top kids from across the state, not your neighborhood.[/quote]
