[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ One last thought. Asians represent about 5% of the under 18 y/o population in the US. Harvard's c/o 2023 was about 25% Asian. If Harvard went to an admissions policy mirroring national demographics, closer to what DeBlasio wants to do in NYC, then [b]the admit rate for Asian students to Harvard would drop from 5.7% to 1.1%. If that seems ridiculous[/b], well, open your eyes because that is the system that many people are advocating for as we speak.[/quote] Would it also seem "ridiculous" to you if they greatly increased the admit rate for blacks and Hispanics? Because that would also be the result of a "mirror national demographics" admit policy.[/quote]
