[quote=Anonymous]OMG, so of you just do not read or you just do not understand the issue. Fisher was not in the 10% pool and her scores were middle of the road. She was NOT an exceptional student within her own pool. There were 42 White people with LOWER scores. Sure, they made have had some kickass EC's - just like the minority students may have. There were minority students with HIGHER scores who did NOT get in. If your DS's roommate is as smart as you say, I doubt his scores were as mediocre as hers. This case is not about a private SLAC - which has a lot more flexibility in admitting people and giving merit aid. This is about a flagship state university that admits very few in-state freshmen outside the 10%. Even looked at under the BEST light, UT was a pipe dream for her. +1 That is why the kids call her "Becky with the bad grades" with a tip of the hat to Beyonce. [/quote]
