You are very misinformed re white males having a more difficult time getting into college, When compared with white females a white male with much lower scores will be accepted over the female.

Re minorities, the prediction equations actually over predict success.

BTW “what planet do you live on” is quite a hostile statement coming from someone so misinformed.

Not in these Unites States. You never heard of “Affirmative Action” — THE de-facto guideline for all college admissions?

Sorry if you found my comment hostile — you are the one who is badly misinformed (and thus deserving of the question based on incredulity of your statement). Google “affirmative action college admissions” and “reverse discrimination college admissions” if you need a few hundred thousand links to back up my contention.

Interestingly, I couldn’t find any to back up your assertion, but many that say the opposite (and thus back me up).
