re: Whites at top colleges would go from 66% to 75% if SAT only admission criteria

How simple minded. Unless your kid is the top 0.0005%, they will always be a “fringe student.” If they’re not a fringe student at LSU, they will be at Vanderbilt or UVA or Stanford or MIT or Yale or Harvard.

The study looked at the top 200 most selective schools. It wasn't just an Ivy thing.

And it's not simple minded. Not a soul at Harvard is there because of their test scores alone. Their profiles are insane. It's comical that people think schools at that level are letting in unqualified students.

? More like a tool of the oppressing white patriarchy. I'd rather have a holistic admissions process that focused on the struggles of the applicant - including but not limited to single parent households, felony convictions, likelihood to vote Democrat, etc.

Just so you know, colleges are implementing an adversity score.

So check your privilege whitey

You would have been good just to respond but go ahead validate everything I just said about a liberal with your check your privelge whitey comment.

Admission’s is fairly transparent. And they work as a team and discuss applicants.

Who is more impressive. A 4.0 gpa and 1500 SAT or 3.8, 1400 SAT, Eagle Scout, played a varsity sport, worked a job, and volunteered.

Exactly I have no problem if the candidate has all the qualifications that pertain to the job but to give the job to less qualified person in the name of diversity is just stupid. Trust me I see it so much now in corporate America but I guess I am just that Racist POS because I want someone who will get the job done right. Fwiw if that job gets done by a QUALIFIED woman or man of color, gay, Muslim, etc I don't care.

The study would include Harvard, no? These two statements are contradictory, unless of course you think changing the qualifications based on race, gender, or nationality is acceptable.

Harvard lets people in simply based on wokeness. Just look at David Hogg who couldn’t even get into directional schools in Florida before he survived Parkland sitting on his couch at home.

I would have thought Asians would go up.

You needs to be smart to attend, but as long as you're X intelligent, you're entire profile should be considered.

What if I told that you X changes depending on your gender and race?

Lol. I ain't melting libtard. I called you out so your response is i am melting. I have seen this play out at my job over the last 5 years. Hire the 2 black women, 2 white women, the Mexican and after 2 years they leave for greener pastures. Two of my best manager's at my job of 20 years have been women and you know why that is? They knew their shite and lead by example. Read my other post I don't care what color, religion, sexual preference but if you are gonna work with me or for me you better know your job. Unfortunately the last 5 years with these new candidates they just can't meet the company's goals.
