Rejected or waitlisted everywhere I wanted to attend due to my race

Cool story. Too bad the OP wasn’t Ivy material.

So you can learn how to spell Ivy!

WMGTOW

Apparently more Asian Americans were accepted into Harvard this year than ever before.

They’re doing that because of the Supreme Court case

They’re only doing this because of the SCOTUS case

To add on to my point: why is a top college 15.3% black?

No one told you you are wait listed because of your skin color.

No one has to tell him. He already knows. Whether he should move on with life or not isn’t the point. Of course he should, but he was actively discriminated against.

Not true.

Nah, that ain’t it. Notice how he ran away? Hint: it’s not because he started his gap year.

Still here - just had a very busy week

If he has evidence, he can hire an attorney and go from there. All he knows has: he has higher s.a.t. than average s.a.t. than Blacks who chose to disclose their racial heritage. Not good enough. He has to name names. If he has a higher s.a.t. than a guy on basketball team averaging 15 points per game, no case; if o.p. has a higher s.a.t. score than a guy on football team averaging 2 quarterback sacks per game, no case; if o.p. has a higher s.a.t. score than son of alumnus who has donated $10 million, no case. O.p. is complaining here because he has case.

This. I just saw that their class was 15% black, compared to 12% for the population as a whole. If it were solely based on merit, it’d be about 3% combined black and Hispanic - not 27%.
Asian would be above 50% and white would be slightly below.

Your new username is proving my point.

Hey OP. You got phucked. There’s no two ways about it. They don’t even look at SAT anymore. You are now swimming against a current where almost every applicant has an unweighted 4.0, however apples to oranges among preparatory schools the comparison may be. However, that is life, and especially now. The sooner you realize that, the better.

So, go to Rice, go kick ass, go start a company. When you get out into the workforce and prove yourself, then you can reward people on merit. Hire and promote on merit. You can pay it forward. Rice is an amazing school by the way.

Higher a lawyer or go away. If you hire a lawyer, your attorney will tell you to shut up and stop posting. It does not matter which school you attend as much as you believe. All your formal education will do is get you a job interview. Your education is not going to win your job interviews. Job interviews are similar to charming the opposite gender (same gender if you prefer). Does your high s.a.t. score get you the man or woman of your choice?

My maternal grandfather dropped out in the 6th grade. He died in early 1960's. Worth in range of 1/4 million to 1/3 million. My maternal grandmother, a l.p.n. by education grew the money to become a multi-millionaire by mid-1980's.

Either hire a lawyer and go from there or attend the best state university possible and move on. Today, you are pathetic.

Merit is not a synonym for your little bell curve book.
