Interesting that to my knowledge only US universities have this kind of "lets look at extra curriculars" admission system in the first place. In all/most other countries, it is high school grades or entrance exams only.
Or - even better IMHO - it is admit almost everyone, and then have some tough exams (e. g. ETH Zurich).
- horns4lyfe 3y agoThe US decided that’s racist.
- giraffe_lady 3y agoPretty sure the extracurricular admissions was itself a racism-motivated development. Once non-WASP groups started to attain adequate admission scores they needed another justification for denying them.
