Social NYU site hacked, posted SAT acceptance scores by race

Yet again I see you running apologism for this racist bullshit that is always either outright factually inaccurate or a laughable defense. We've seen differences at the Ivy leagues as great as ~400 exposed.

First, 1290 vs. a 1470-1570 average isn't "100" points. It's not even 200 points. It's closer to 250 points. When 310 points is the maximum difference that could separate it. In terms of the difference between populations along the curve, that's a grand canyon sized chasm. It's the difference between someone in the 87th percentile and someone in the 99th percentile.

The first student is excellent. The second is extraordinary.

Source on a 400 point difference at Ivy Leagues, please. And I trust these are group averages, not individual scores.

If they do exist then I do think it's unfair. 400 points is too much.

NYU has a 196-point difference and that's within the 100-200 range that I mentioned. I work for a large state university and have access to data and know for a fact that at this level, the difference is around 100 points. And finally, I have no problem with an "extraordinary" student not getting into NYU because there's about a 99.9% chance that they got into another one of the extremely prestigious schools they applied to. They'll be alright.

Of course, in a country of 340 million, there's some that'll fall through the cracks so that one Asian kid that with a 1580 or whatever and got job a Google is an exception (and even he really did get accepted at several schools, just not his very top choices, iirc). Point is, it's not a systemic problem.

Michigan and Texas aren't east coast, but every school I listed are as prestigious as NYU at less than half the price.

Unless you're looking at business school or already/want to live in NYC there are much better options.

Your whimpering defense amounts to little more than, "Yes, I know it's racist. It's only a little racist. So it's okay. And someone else might not be racist, so this guy being racist is really okay. "

Except, as we established here, as a matter of fact, and in past threads, it's not a little bit racist. It's substantially racist. It's racist to the degree of statistical shifts. And whether or not another university accepts these students is irrelevant.

But you continue to be a champion for racism, and its racist double standards. Good for you.
 
Even if the data is fake, the liberal reverse racism justification here is pretty entertaining as always. They don't even think for one second about the kid who worked his ass off studying to nail the SAT and get straight A's, only to not be admitted because of the color of their skin.

The extra curricular activities like sports is an even more entertaining justification. Why wasn't the Asian kid given the chance to start at QB despite being less talented than the black or white kid that's most likely starting?

It seems like DEI is specifically designed to help certain races while discriminating against others. It's only applicable when liberals want the race of their choice to get ahead and not applicable at all when the race of their choice is already ahead.

You can add the ellipsis or semicolon in your head if you require it to appreciate the intended impact of those two sentences together; after all, if we're being grammar Nazis, the following sentence is fragmented. I'll accept your angry attempt to nitpick a grammatically correct sentence as a concession of the point.

Concession accepted.
 
Should state universities be obligated to accept students who graduated from said state?

Why or why not?

Concession accepted.

Always a pleasure making you look like a complete idiot. The "impact" is very much intended.

Enjoy your big day of video games and swimming lessons. Rofl.

How about this...

Remove Race completely from college applications.

Shocking concept I know... lol
 
So... is this all B.S. and the numbers are fake?

We do know colleges have used racist tactics to exclude Whites and Asians unfairly.

Feel free to attend the topic of debate when you calm down.

You mean the guy running across the forums to post in every thread I'm posting in after realizing he doesn't know basic English?

You're a real good boy, Madcan. Stay close. And mad.
