DEI college edition : kid with perfect test scores and gpa denied by woke ivy league

kudos to him for cashing in, but lets be real that app is **** and he clearly has major connections. The remainder of his resume is impressive.

Its sad to see people this qualified get denied but it happens to asian/indian kids on the regular.

 

Should have been a Legacy baby.

 

If I had to guess, he is probably insufferable and that alone was enough to kill his chances at getting into any of those schools. His reaction to all this is quite telling.

 

Per one of the articles, he is the son of two lawyers and that completely tracks with his persona.

I am surprised he did not get into USC though. He would fit right in.

 

His personal statement is hot trash.

 

I’ll show you who deserved that seat though:

 

Maybe he comes across as smug, arrogant, and being above the other students, not to mention the professors? Maybe the colleges decided to give someone else a chance that wants to be there more? He admittedly thought for much of his life he didn't need college. Meanwhile, there are thousands of others that have been working towards college their entire lives - he's been working against that idea, admittedly.


I could see how this is a turn off for schools.
