Congrats to your DD. Surprisingly low test score, I must say. What major?

First gen, urm, or other hook?

Is this a joke?

White male non-stem; 36 ACT; 4.0uw/4.4w at tough private. Took tour and donate, legacy in essay.

Did she submit the 30????

Maybe the one with the 30 had an EC they were looking for, like maybe she started a popular white-people-suck web site.

JHU's last class was 17-18% Caucasian. That is not skewing the stats a tad. That is the result of policy.

Not exactly. Look at U California Berkeley, for example. Race blind for a long time. What is the percentage of white students?

Apples and oranges. Cal is a state school with a high Asian and Hispanic populations. JHU is private school with no residency requirements. It is a massive discrepancy.

Amazingly, at the moment here in mid March 2024, Johns Hopkins still requires undergrads to get a COVID vaccine. Even Harvard has stopped requiring that. JHU is now the top ranked school in the US with such requirement.

Wow. That is pure insanity. You would think they have a better understanding of public health policy at Johns Hopkins.

“In the United States, privilege is granted to people who have membership in one or more of these social identity groups: white people, able-bodied people, heterosexuals, cisgender people, males, Christians, Middle of owning-class people, Middle-aged people, English-speaking people.”
