[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is discrimination against Asians and whites that different?
[/quote]

Yes. Being White is a net-neutral to slightly negative factor.

Being Asian is a materially negative factor.[/quote]

BTW, it seems that the only decisive hook for Asians with HYPS is to make an Olympic team (or win a medal!): Chloe Kim, Eileen Gu, Nathan Chen etc., are all at Princeton, Stanford and Yale respectively.

That's what it takes these days.[/quote]

You understand right, that all elite schools have tons of Asian students, right? Those spots are just more competitive to land. But they are there and full.[/quote]
The Asian applicant tend to be interested in STEM, and there are only a limited number of STEM spots available.  They are essentially competing with other Asians.[/quote

How come you are not called racist or being stereotypical when you say "Asian applicants tend to be interested in STEM." But someone who says some Asian parents pressure their kids about grades is?[/quote]
