[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You won't find it at the Ivies or the other top 10s. Something to think about.[/quote]

[b]Which is ironic given that most of the Ivies discriminate against Asians.[/quote][/b]

Enough about the Asian discrimination please.  Ivies have become unbelievably hard to get into.  Period.  Welcome to Global Competition.  [/quote]

Let's be honest though. That has nothing to do with global competition. I don't believe in 100% all Asian Ivies but I think it's fair to say Ivies DO discriminate against Asians. [/quote]

Harvard, a private institution, is not obliged to follow any formula in admissions. They don't have to take the top scoring students only. Further, even if Harvard did decide to admit only the ver top scores, they could fill several freshmen classes with perfect score kids, so it's not clear to me how discrimination is being practiced.

FTR, I also have no problem with colleges "discriminating" against  students from certain high schools by limiting the number they take from each. Nor am I troubled by UVA's "discrimination" against kids from NoVA.[/quote]
