Those bastards!
They are racist against Asians Can change affirmative action forever! Basically qualified people aren't getting the job due to being the wrong skin tone. It's worked in blacks favor for many years, and has stopped plenty of whites from getting jobs due to needing to meet a quota. Now it's affecting Asians, and they are suing since we are minorities too |

Damn right Asians are minorities.
We're 5% of the population. Seems to me that 5% is less than 13%. |

Just another reason that Affirmative Action in and of how it is written is racist. Time for it to go the fuck away.

I was once yelled at and lectured by an old black man. He kept getting mad at me, and telling me I "cut in line". I work at a pharmacy and was ringing up a drink and he was behind me.
I answered, "No sir, I did not, but if you are in a rush, you are more than welcome to ring up ahead of me". He responded "No, you jumped in line and it isn't fair" I still didn't understand what's going on. Then another black guy at the store filled me in, and he basically meant "black's were in America for 300 years, prior to the Vietnamese, and we are more socially accepted than they are, and he's made about it". I'm sorry but I wasn't asked to be born Asian American, and I have worked hard for EVERY thing I have, And I didn't expect handouts. |

I should clarify that I'm talking about the general liberal ideology, rather than the Harvard admissions committee. I always thought of it as designing an education around rich legacies. As part of their education, you provided minorities and lower income people (i.e. people they were unlikely to have been exposed to in their every day life). Those people were told they were getting an education, but really were there to provide an education. No different than bringing in lab rats for science class. It wouldn't make sense to bring it too many people from one race or socioeconomic class because that wouldn't further the education. |

Quoted:
That's per capita. But that doesn't exclude the fact that the average Asian being excepted is more qualified than the average white person on merit (and even more so than the blacks). So all things being equal, and race not being on the application, there should be a lot more Asians accepted. Just because we make up a smaller percentage of the population, does not mean we should have less opportunity to make it into the school of our choice. View Quote |

As to the math, again, as an Asian, your chances of getting into Harvard are much greater than any other group (except Jews, because there are far less Jews than Asians in the U.S.) However, you will have to compete against a more competitive cohort (other Asians) for your slots. |

Asians are part of the whole SJW network and often describe themselves as a "marginalized" minority.

You wanted a society based on anti-white racism and racial grievance and professional victimhood, well here you have it. Bon appetite!

check this shit out:
http://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/the-uncomfortable-truth-about-affirmative-action-and-asian-americans This despicable SJW asshole says that discriminating against whites isn't a bad thing, but it might lead to resentment. Isn't that just happy crappy? "In the pursuit of diversity, some amount of racial balancing seems unavoidable, however taboo. We should not want the composition of our élite universities to be wildly out of proportion to the racial composition of our country. Such lopsided access to gateways of opportunity and power—say, with whites being severely underrepresented at schools like Harvard—has the potential to fuel dangerous resentment and disturb social peace, at least if the change occurs too far ahead of demographic changes that are projected to make whites a minority in this country in less than three decades." After 20+ years of this shit, I say everyone can go fuck themselves. |

View Quote But the answer to your question is they limit Asian admissions. If it was all merit based there would be a lot more Asians. (Most of Harvard would be Asian and Jewish. They simply dominate merit based criteria) What you have is a rough idea of how many of each cohort will get in. That is why it is easier for Asians to get in than Whites. Asians are not competing with other whites they are competing with other Asians for the block of Asian slots. Imagine this. You have 100 White people and 10 Asians. They will let in 30 white people and 5 Asians. White people have a 30% chance of admission. Asians have a 50% chance. That is straight up odds. (My point) it is easier for Asians. Now, some people are having some trouble understanding where the higher Asian scores get put in this math issue. It does not go into the odds. (Calculating them as part of the entire data set, again broad brush to illustrate a point) As a tangent and to address your question, what is happeneing is the Asian population as a whole is performing better than the white population. So, even though the Asians have to score higher to get in, their odds are still 50%. While the Whites are only 30%. |
