[quote=Anonymous]AA actually helps Asians indirectly. The Asian kids are told not to take anything for granted and that they have to work twice as hard to get the same outcome. Meanwhile, blacks and Hispanics who get into top colleges have the stigma of AA. In NY City, many black alumni of Specialized High schools do not want any form of AA for the high school tests because they do not want kids who qualify through the test to have to hear about how they got in only because of AA. Interestingly, there were many more blacks at specialized high schools in in 80s and 90s, wonder what happened that those numbers dropped drastically.[/quote]
