[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Somebody commented there may be a racial thing here. Unfortunately, I am thinking I may agree. We are Indian. So are others (Asian Americans) we know who got rejected with crazy high scores. I HATE to say this but I think they are pushing white kids forward because way too many Asians in the program who are not as qualified with scores.... There is something to this, I think and needs further evaluation. [/quote] White family here, rejected with crazy high scores. I am not sure if that makes you feel better or worse.[/quote] Whether or not race was an explicit deciding factor or not is moot: the point is that they used subjective criteria which do not match intuition, so if we extrapolate over any large body of people, their decision criteria will necessarily reflect some pattern of bias.[/quote]
