You can’t make an omelet......
If the young man is still a democrat, he should not complain.
Affirmative action rewards some, and at the same time, punishes others.
I can understand why affirmative action may have made some sense in 1965, but don’t understand why we still have it. And also don’t understand how affirmative action morphed into quota systems. There has been lots of anecdotal evidence that Asians are discriminated against to make way for less qualified applicants of other ethnicities.
Oh, this is fun.
Affirmative action does not reward ‘some.’ It rewards low performers at the expense of the more qualified.
Quotas are quotas, racism is racism, and "affirmative action" has ALWAYS been both.
Ping.
Upset that apple cart.
Thanks for posting.
I saw people less qualified than me get better offers, says Mr Wang.”
Welcome to the real world of designated victim groups. Your mistake was actually excelling in your chosen interest.

It demonstrates he swallowed the "hope and change" rubbish and is highly credulous. I wouldn't accept him either.
I saw just last week that one of the Ivy League school cleared itself of racism against high-achieving asians.
Oh he will see how much of a “minority” he is she he starts to get uppity about how the leftist plantation masters aren’t treating him as well as the blacks or gays.
What did he want to happen? Obviously, he expected to get into all of them..and he deserved to do so, on the merits. Then there's a big story in the local paper, with pictures of all seven letters, and Wang sits back and decides which is the better deal.
Meantime, 6 colleges get there tentative freshman classes screwed up, and more likely, 6 other kids who wanted to really go to either Yale, or Penn, or Dartmouth..didn't get in initially, because Wang took a spot. The Ivies communicate with each other..they know which kids applied to all of them..it's not hard to find out...and so they punished him..and more likely, they'll punish a kid from his HS who applies to one or more of them NEXT year..as a way of making the point to the school's guidance counselors..who should know better.

May he end his life working graveyard shift at MacDonald’s: bitter and alone.
