[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The bitterness and racism and level of expectation are astounding. My wonderful (and privileged) high stats Asian kid only applied to 1 T-20, knowing how steep the odds are (for everyone!!) and was happy to chose amongst several T-50’s where they did have a realistic chance. I would not blame DEI or affirmative action for my kid being “shut out” of the aT-20’s. The colleges are communities that need different talents and perspectives. I would not want my kid attending a college where everyone comes in with the same profile, same life experiences or same mindset/aspirations. [/quote]

The irony is, these elite colleges have the highest percentage of Asian kids among all colleges in the nation.  MIT nearly half of the student body is Asian.  JHU, Rice, UPenn…[/quote]percent of student body is highly misleading when you consider how many Asian kids are in the country, who could graduate MIT in 4years with a B average[/quote]

The majority of Asian Americans students are from California, and attend community college.[/quote]
