One of the things they kind of gloss over is the reason they use the SAT and entrance exam scores above the students GPA and test scores from high school.

It appears she has a 3.5 GPA which is pretty good, better than mine was, but I went to a school in the suburbs outside Detroit. Just showing up for class and ATTEMPTING to learn in many Detroit schools can earn you an A without even trying now.

She’s not from a Detroit school, she’s from Andover in Birmingham but her ACT score is abysmal.

She’s pulling the same crap that the other BAMN students at U of M tried earlier this year with their demands.

These kids don’t have the same academic and life accomplishments as the other students entering Michigan, but like Obama, they want to be given everything they want without putting in the work.

When they get the special privileges it’s due to skin color, but when they don’t, they blame the skin.

A thinking person can’t win with this crowd.
