his friends and counselors warned that “it’s tougher to get in, especially as an Asian-American.”

Absolutely true. I would add "male" to that.

And on the other end of that, these elite schools all have large numbers of staff dedicated to keeping their diversity admits from flunking out. Usually by channeling them into majors like creative writing, gender studies, and political studies

Add “white male” to that!!
My kids have been academically and athletically blessed, but my youngest has a similar story to this!

A freakin” crime! But DEI bullsh!t will give affirmative action admittance to many who DO NOT DESERVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Certain colors and “gender” persuasions are put near the top!

...and I for one want my doctor who excelled in Gender Studies. My ENT who has since retired got to visiting about socialized medicine and he was a big advocate of it. Told him I wanted my doctor’s driving Porsche’s (he drove one), because if we socialize medicine, the sharp kids will chase the dollars elsewhere.

MIT cannot do that!! EVERY student must take and pass some version of Physics 8.01 (classical mechanics)!!!!

MIT should have admitted this Asian student, even if he is a nerd! MIT has been a paradise for nerds, who have done very well there!!!!
