Especially since the alumni interviewers who actually meet the candidates give Asian candidates basically the same marks for personality as White candidates.

- hackinthebochs 8y agoBut are the students who meet with alumni a representative sample? If I were a socially inept applicant I would take my chances without the interview.
- Symmetry 8y agoThe way it worked when I was interviewing was that every applicant had an interview.
- uhohnotgood 8y agoIt's not just alumni. Asian applicants were rated basically the same on "Personality" scores from teacher letters, counselor letters, alumni interviews, etc. Everything except their final grade (which is the only place that includes essays, I believe). However, I find it incredibly unlikely that asian applicants are so bad at writing essays that it's singlehandedly tanking their personality score that drastically.
