[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was always competitive, OP. Many countries have had ultra competitive college admissions for generations. Here in America you just didn't realize it because you were part of the privileged. As PP said, in your generation many of the US poor or the US non-whites didn't make it to college. Now it's opened up a lot more, and you're feeling the heat.

It’s not because of US poor or non whites it’s mostly because of foreign elites coming here [/quote]

This. Foreign elites also affected the housing market. [/quote]

I was a child of poor Asian immigrants. My parents came here for a better life. Same with DH’s family. DH and I did well in school and professionally. Recently there has been a wave of extremely wealthy Asians. They were not as common when I was a kid. These are people who will buy a $5m home cash without blinking. They have money and brains. So you now have the smart Asian Americans like my kids, the kids of poor Asian immigrants (like me and Dh when we were kids) and now the really smart rich immigrant kids.[/quote]

There are more and more Chinese illegal immigrants crossing the southern border.  According to Homeland Security there was an. 8,000 percent increase in border crossings from March of last year to March of this year.  People automatically think brown people when discussing illegal immigrants but Asians are coming to the country illegally too and the numbers are going up.  [/quote]

You think Chinese immigrants are illegally crossing the border and then enrolling their kids into travel sports? Very creative imagination.[/quote]
