Asian-American Student Has Near-Perfect 1590 out of 1600 SAT Score and a 4.65 GPA, Gets Ugly Shock After Applications to Elite Universities

Who gives a ****. Smart people do other things than clubs you dipshit.

I've heard democrats say that if colleges didn't discriminate against Asians, there would be to many Asians in the colleges.

What Democrats have you heard say that? Be specific.

It only make sense, there is much more to the world than doing well on a test.

A good example is in medical school. You can be the most academically gifted student ever, but if have no ability to connect with your people you likely won’t be a very good doctor. Likewise many schools like to look for applicants from underserved communities who express an interest in returning to those communities to practice: rural areas, ethnic and racial minorities etc. They may be less interested in the kid who‘s main goal after graduation is to get rich on body sculpting, cosmetic surgery and liposuction.

 

[Coyote]

That’s fine. But one of the things they will NOT be able to look for is the race of the applicant.

There are other ways.

What were his extracurricular activities? Clubs? Sports? Etc?

Yeah because a perfect score on the SAT and a 4.6 GPA is overcome by being in the glee club.

The Black student most likely DID score high enough to be admitted or he wouldn’t have been considered.

1) The black student scored high enough to be admitted, as a black. As a white, he most likely would have been rejected.

2) And remember, it comes at the expense of the white student who is academically superior. So again…..why shouldn’t the white student who is better go to the best school, and the black student who is good but not great go to the lesser school?

Nope, but when there are 100 other people with those same test scores and GPA it can help you stand out from the crowd

This holds true for nursing school almost without fail. The honor grad from nursing school is very often a terrible nurse.

Any proof that’s how this went down? No? What I figured.

Can you link to the page that has the admittance scores listed by race?

 

[Lisa558]

There are other ways.

So, you’re already telling me that the liberals in education, so sure of their moral superiority, will find ways to ignore the fact that the SCOTUS ruled that adjusting admissions policies to favor one race and disfavor another is unconstitutional?

From a different post in this thread.....Harvard got 56,937 applications for the class of 2027. They accepted only 3.4%. All of them would have been highly qualified, so how do you select when you can only admit a tiny fraction? None of these schools admit solely on gpa/test scores nor should they.

So how do you know that the white student didn't get in because he lost out to another white student with lower scores, you are just assuming that the white student didn't get in because they let a black student in. That's what makes you a racist POS. Higher many black students with higher scores have been denied because the white student with lower merits go in because of who they know. I noticed you couldn't refute the numbers I posted so you ran like a scolded dog.

Why do colleges discriminate by race?

Why do colleges discriminate against Asians?

The difference between the scores/grades in med school that are “good enough” for blacks to be admitted are substantially lower than that required for whites to get in.

Why do colleges discriminate against Asians?

Why did colleges discriminate against black folks?

And remember, GPA/Test score has never been the sole criteria for admissions. All of these students are going to be highly qualified regardless of race. Why shouldn’t the Black student have the opportunity if he excels in other aspects?

The average SAT score at Harvard is 1520. He’s 70 points above that. If it were one school then you might have point. But all of them? None of the top Universities in the US wanted a student with a near perfect SAT score and GPA? You don’t actually believe that.

Because I worked in admissions, you racist POS. Two out of every three blacks in their prestigious college would NOT have gotten in if white.

And yet, your are fine with admissions policies that disfavor whites and Asians and give racial preferences to blacks. That makes YOU the racist.
