My top students with multiple waitlists/rejections were all asian males.  They ended up at (good) state schools but by and large were rejected by privates.[/quote]
raise hand.. that was my CS Asian male. Very high stats. Now at a state flagship with merit.[/quote]

This country revels in discrimination against Asians.[/quote]Every top school in this country is packed to the gills with Asian students. [/quote]

Asians are waaayyy over represented at the best schools and STEM programs. The problem is a numbers one: there are enough Asians here and abroad who want to study at America’s top schools and STEM departments to fill every seat. American schools have a duty beyond just educating Asians. [/quote]

Waaaiit  -  people are complaining that the new USNWR ranking doesn't take into account academic related achievements enough but here you are saying that "Asians are over represented" (whatever that means since the comparison is not and should not be with the whole US population but the applicant pool), even though those "over represented Asians" have the highest academic achievement?

Asian Americans are screwed whichever way you look at it.[/quote]
