I didn't know there was a quota on how many Asian students a college could accept.
And besides, doesn't a college want the best students in their college, regardless of ethnicity?

- gujk 15y agoThank you. It is insane how many people think college admissions is the official scoreboard oof high school, and not something to do with choosing students who are well matched to the college.
- fatjokes 15y agoIt's not insane. It's simply objective. How do you define "best match"? The gut feeling of the admissions officer? You need an objective measure.
