[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]...On the other hand, I'm an alumni interviewer for my alma mater, which is a top-25 university. I interviewed a few people last year, and recommended them all. [b]The Asian students I recommended were not accepted, and looking back on it, I think it was the lack of being a well-rounded person. [/b]They did very well academically (which is why I recommended them) but weren't so well-rounded compared to the non-Asian student I interviewed (and who was accepted).[/quote] what school and specifically what was lacking in the Asian students?[/quote] NP. Not well rounded of course meaning they are geeks. Keep telling yourself that... Like Asians aren't able to figure out that you need to be "well rounded" to get accepted. This is why Harvard is 18% Asian and 11% international - mostly from Asia.[/quote]
