[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] NP. This has nothing to do with a superiority complex. It has to do with working hard and achieving as a result and having to swallow that someone who didn’t work as hard and achieve as high results might be preferred in college admissions because they were born a certain way.[/quote] The system in the US was set up favoring white men for most of the last 300 years. These people benefited because they were 'born a certain way'. Millions of people "work hard" and didn't get the same privilege because they were not in the right place at the right time. So, there may be some pain experienced by parents of kids who may have to go to a slightly lower ranked school as society tries to slowly re-balance. [/quote]
