[quote=Anonymous]Agree with: The WSJ using her story to whip up white resentment of minorities. It didn't help that she wrote her essay about her mental health struggle after she got a "B", no matter how well she coped; universities are becoming allergic to funding their mental health centers. And those schools are pressure cookers. The "dime a dozen" situation is fact. But also, no one has mentioned that those prestigious universities aren't looking for kids who want to major in accounting. I have sat on admissions panels. I can hear someone say "she can go to HBS after she gets her solid general education." ASU is a solid choice for her. But if she were my kid, I would hope for a full ride to a really good LAC, and then a great business school master's degree. I'd bet that was what the admissions panel members were thinking too.
