<p>As I said earlier in the thread, it’s likely more to ensure some kind of balance, but there’s variation from year to year, depending on recruitment. They won’t ever completely eliminate race, because they do want to keep tabs on how many of each ethnicity are applying, how many are being accepted, and how many are enrolling. IMO they aren’t willing to take a firm stance completely eliminating race-based AA in case imbalance does result and they have to go back on that.</p>
