Hard working Asian young man from the bay area rejected by the 16 top Engineering schools in America including, surprising to me, Georgia Tech. The family has filed a law suit against California schools. In the era of Donald Trump, this is not a good look for these schools. The family has contacted state lawmakers in California but say they got little interest in return. I would think legislators in some red states like Georgia, PA, Wisconsin and Michigan might take a keener interest. I would hope so anyway. Racism is racism and this is a prime example of what DJT is fighting.

I concur ... there are a lot of excellent engineering schools in the lower 48. The deep South and the SouthEast have lots of choices. Stay away from the East coast. Screw CA ...

Schools can’t have a curve buster like him jeopardizing the college careers of their affirmative action students.

We knew a student who scored a PERFECT SAT score, a few others with near-perfect scores, and many others with scores high enough for Ivy League, and ALL were rejected by Ivy League universities. One of my kids was among them.

These were white and black students. All were homeschooled. None of our kids filed lawsuits or ran to the press. Most of them went to state universities where they were happy.

Admission to STEM programs at the “top” universities is extremely competitive.
