Why would she apply to all of them? The application fee is literally $615

Lol @ racists who voted affirmative action. Have you accomplished half of what she's accomplished?
Students getting into all of the Ivies is a monumental feat, but it's happened to a handful of teens over the past couple of years -- Kwasi Enin in 2014, Harold Ekeh in 2015 and Augusta Uwamanzu-Nna and Kelly Hyles last year.

2. She Hopes to Become a Cardiologist One Day
I always assumed if you're an Ivy League school top pick, cream of the crop, you'd also be a top pick at any other Ivy League school.

I assume most of them are immigrants? or 2nd generation? Its not untapped potential seeping out. Its not really any different than say Asians getting into Ivy league schools in mass numbers. This is why people against immigration are so wrong. They do much better than the native born population.
I doubt all 8 schools would accept a dummy just because of her race. She probably has a solid GPA and SAT and resume or whatever the hell they want from kids nowadays.

And by combination I mean a combo of her merits and her race.
I'm not sure if race quotas are legal , but they obviously still do them if you look at admittance scores/GPA of various races for every school.
She probably was the most impressive or one of the most impressive black applicants which is a feat in itself, but I think colleges compare applicants more with peers of their race than other people and there are stats to prove that I think
also is it any worse than the kids who get in through connections or other stupid means.
There's that one kid who got in and wrote BLACK LIVES MATTER like 100 times for an essay question on his application and only got in because he worked for Hillary Clinton
CE cries affirmative action every time a black persons gets into college.
Come on, you're telling me that in a white-majority country, that it just so happens all the extremely-qualified candidates are people of color?
Sorry, I am sure she has the good grades, but this is entirely universities being political.

No, you can't. Every individual who's made it into all eight Ivy Leagues has been a minority.

To claim that's all just a coincidence with certainty is the height of ignorance.
Lol yea sure. I'm sure they didn't work their asses off at all. It's just affirmative action. Like that s*** is a federal law or something

Stop posting dumb accusatory shit and address the point. Why were literally all of those folks first generation Americans?
Also, I don't compare myself to high schoolers. So there's no discussion of "betters" with me; if you want to make those calls that's your prerogative.

No, he said that He's sure there were more qualified whites who didn't get in because I guess Ivy league schools got a quota to fill lololol
