[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is possible since I know of an Asian American kid who had done extremely well overall at a very good school (perfect gpa, 2360 SAT (800, 800, 760), all 800s on SAT IIs, all 5s on many APs, leadership positions in key student groups, original STEM research which was highly advanced (graduate school level), very impressive internships, many hours of volunteering, great recommendation letters (seen them both were 11/10), great essays (reviewed and evaluated by several English teachers to be excellent and seen them 9/10), multiple national level awards such as debate awards etc. etc. Really passionate and curious about learning which showed through various EC activities and leadership positions. And yet, this kid applied to 9 schools and was rejected by 8 schools and accepted by only 1 school. His race (and no "Hooks") was only thing that got in the way. [/quote] Was he rejected by safeties as well?[/quote]
