And Obama was black too so he already didn’t need great grades to get in.

For comparison, a typical Harvard App needs a 170/3.8 to get in with good ec’s. (98th percentile)

A minority candidate can pull a 165/3.5. (80th percentile) and not good enough for any white student at a top 14 law school.

Obama did even worse than this.

Can you point me to Obama’s actual scores? I haven’t seen them.
