[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Threads like this crack me up.  Rich whites and Asians complaining that they're disadvantaged and suffering oh so much because their poor little children are stuck at Langley, TJ, Mclean, Yorktown, Meridian etc.  and can't get into UVA.  In the meantime, they say, anybody and his mother from other schools in and outside of NOVA just waltz right in.

This is total bullshit.  Just look at the numbers.  Take one school, say, Yorktown for the moment.  The whole class hasn't posted on insta yet, but of those who have 30 have committed to UVA.  There are easily another few dozen more who could have and probably did also get in but are going elsewhere (ten or so to Ivy+, Georgetown, Notre Dame, some top LACs and of course many to William & Mary, etc.)

So easily 50 Yorktown kids either did or could have gotten into UVA.

Compare that to any non-elite public school in VA and you won't see anything close to those numbers.

So stop your whining about how the top high schools are suffering.  It's bullshit.[/quote]
