I don’t think you understand how college admittance works in the Ivy League. It is overwhelmingly biased against whites and Asians.
I’ve read about it. No disagreement here.

If I meet a black or Hispanic person of the same background - they are smarter than the average person but the jury is still out on whether or not they are in the same league with the first group.
My son’s best friend (Asian kid) had above a 4.0 GPA from an advanced school, perfect 36 on ACT, Merit Scholar, valedictorian, and even started a successful charity in his hometown. (Wait for it)
Denied by every Ivy League school.
If he was a black female, he would already be Vice President of the United States.
I think I just misinterpreted your original post. But yeah, I completely believe you about your son’s friend.
I want affirmative action to go away. Without it, kids like your friend’s son would be admitted and the black/Hispanic kids wouldn’t be doubted.

I could not agree more.
One of the smartest guys in my medical school class was black. He is brilliant. He is also now the youngest chair of a department in the history of his university hospital.
He hated the fact that people assumed he got in medical school because of his skin color.
I bet he still thinks people view his well deserved success through a colored lens.
