Sure. Unless you are an Asian American woman. What this article fails to mention is that the whole college admissions process has been blatantly racist against Asians. Also since we are talking about women girls in general are disadvantaged under admissions to make way for more males that are less qualified. Again college admission here needs an overhaul. Many other countries rely on other meritocratic measures for competitive college admissions and I am all for that.
Curious which countries you are referring that have meritocratic methods?
China, Japan, and South Korea. And those kids literally kill themselves if they don’t gain admission. Suicide and depression rates among teens are off the chart in those countries. It’s collective trauma.
The elite universities in the. UK admit based on grades too. I don’t see them killing themselves.
The UK has a better safety net so people aren’t playing the rat race to maintain UMC status like they do here. In Asia and India, your only chance of having economic security is higher Ed or rich family.
False. Our tax code punishes the UMC. What tge UK does have that we don’t is the purposeful channeling of middle school and high school students into vocational schools (imagine the squawk here if that should be proposed) so oNly the true scholars are left to apply to either Oxford or Cambridge (you have to pick) and I have firsthand knowledge of Oxford application prerequisite both undergrad and grad. It’s still a meritocracy whereas the US schools have simply lost their way with social engineering

Cheating on tests in these countries is rampant, and politically-connected and wealthy families can very easily buy their way into the top universities. I figured these would be examples of the countries offered...add India as another country where the admissions process is a mess.
You mean the same way rich and connected families buy their ways into universities here and people cheat ala university blues?

It will be interesting to watch UVA Arts & Sciences, WM, IVpvys etc become gender blind in admissions and hit 70% women. Because race, national origin, gender and religion are the big protected classes. It’s hard to imagine prohibiting consideration of race but allowing gender consideration.
It’s interesting to watch as women become more educated than men and less dependent on them. There is a society wide shift underway that is creating the Incels and MAGAs, who are pushing to legally restrict women. This decision will make womens power and mens resentment explode.
Title IX already prohibits gender discrimination at public institutions
+1. Pp doesn’t know what they are talking about. Just how did we get to 60 percent women. Ohhhh Title IX

DP: the vast majority of European and Asian countries. And that's why as a society they tend to be more fair than we are.
