Asian kids 2 smart black/latino kids 2 dum

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
I know talking about IQ and race makes people uncomfortable, that is why I stay anonymous.  I am a coward, but I enjoy taboo discussions.

I feel it's going to get harder and harder for Asians to get into good schools as people want diversity.  You can feel it from the yahoo news article above.  The last sentence in the article is:

"Meanwhile, the liberal intellectual mentions, several groups including the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund have lodged a federal civil rights complaint seeking to force New York?s elite public schools to admit fewer Asians."
 
Honestly, I don't feel ethnicity has anything to do with IQ but I am probably wrong.

I do know genetics may racially profile when it comes to physical attributes but I'm watching American Ninja Warrior and it seems to skew across all ethnicities. :)
 
Schools have Asian quotas.  Once they get a set amount of Asians, the doors close.  Sorry Asians...you may have enough grades to get in, but your spot just got taken by someone that is !Asian.

You know for DIVERSITY! suks2bu.

I wonder if kids can check off the African American box when applying for college?...Since u know we are all from Africa...

just tell them your black from the waist down.
 
Diversity has benefits beyond academic issues.  There are benefits to being exposed to people of various race, ethnicity, religion, social class, and history.  They provide views and experiences that are valuable when trying to resolve an issue or problem.
 
Since checking ASIAN on a college application is now a detriment to being accepted, Is it better to leave it blank?  I know the admissions people can guess the ethnicity by the name, but leaving it blank seems like the way to go if you're Asian.
 
What about the white people with the last name Lee?  Do they need to attach a photo of themselves for proof?    :o
 
No they're scroo'd like the rest of the Asian kids.  Better to group all Lee's in the same Asian basket then risk one getting through.

I was thinking about that also. Such as David Lee (basketball player), Marcus Lee (football player)
 
Ivy League set aside 11-14% for Asian acceptances. So are the second tier private colleges. An admission officer is assigned to a region of each state. OC for example encompasses a vast area with well qualified applicants. There is a quota limit however. Occasionally admission will find fewer Asian applicants from the Inland/ Barstow/ San Diego region and assign a few more spots for OC. College admission has access to the application portal to see what other colleges the students are applying to. Colleges historically could predict the "yield" ratio. Yield is the (number of applicants that commit to the school)/ ( number of applicants accepted). High yield means the school is highly desirable among the applicants and the school could afford to be very choosy and accept a very low percentage of applicants. Very good Safety schools will accepted upward of 55% of all applicants. The yield is below 18% for these schools. Every Asian parents will make their children apply to the same handful of schools and over saturation could also mean admission oversight. Asians must apply to good schools not a household names among bragging relatives. This is where many applicants failed to accomplish and really get stuck with the popular safety schools like Chapman, Cal States Fullerton and UC Irvine.
