I thought it was Asians and white women.

I have a DD who is half Asian and half white. So I guess she's screwed?!

Not necessarily. She could probably get preferential treatment in the military or in joint apprenticeship trades programs.

+1 It is actually white WOMEN who have college cards stacked against them as there are significantly more of them applying these days.

Aren't white women the primary beneficiaries of affirmative action for jobs?

Yes

And you really shouldn't comment on something you know NOTHING about. Why make fool of yourself?

I don't understand? They are mixed race. Why would you not mark them as mixed race?

Well, according to the article, African Americans get 230 points automatically added to their SAT scores and Hispanic students get 185 points added.

I'm mixed race, but that seems ridiculous on many levels. First off, not every single AA child is disadvantaged and less intelligent. Maybe if they took SES into consideration, it would be more relevant. But strictly adding points for race seems off.

This is an interesting article about how race affects college admissions:
