[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]THERE IS NO 'SECRET SAUCE' - as some people claim there is. Seems certain groups want an answer, so they can prep for it, but not one answer exists - except (listen carefully) - Admission in up to the individual school. Period. [/quote] yet, so many on here see Asian Americans as a monolith - "prepped, tutored, no personality, only knows how to take a test". My issue with Harvard is how the AO has marked so many Asian American students as "not likeable" without ever having met them, while the Interviewer marked them as "likeable". That tells me that they are engaging in stereotyping at best, and discrimination at worst, all in the name of keeping the number of Asian American students from getting too big at Harvard. This is exactly why Harvard introduced holistic admissions way back, except swap Asian Americans with Jews.[/quote]
