[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Challenging academics are only impressive if you an URM at a T-20. Then the colleges will swoon and gush over it. If you are Asian on the other hand, then it gets you the "grind" label along with " so typical and uninteresting" thrown in as a gratuitous insult. If you don't have it though, you may be questioned as a lazy Asian.  If you are white, then they just chalk it up to your "white privilege" of being able to attend a suburban white school.

That's the sad state of T-20 admissions today

Stop being bitter and get on with your life.  If only you spent as much time worrying about the real white supremacists who actually think you are less than human. I'm Asian-American with DCs at 5% admit schools. 20-25% of their classmates are Asian-American. Who do you think they are? It might be possible they bring something different/more that the Asian-Americans who don't get in. I think the black, Native American and Latinx kids certainly do. [/quote]
