IMO, these will be your handicaps when applying to Ivy League Schools:


Subtract 100 pts from your SAT or 2 pts from ACT because they will assume you took prep courses
Knock .2 off your GPA because they will assume you had tutors
Cross out standard extracurriculars such as FBLA, S&D, DECA, Robotics, Volunteering at Hospital etc. because they will assume you did them for college applications


Don’t worry, years later when you get a job, its your skills that matter more than your ethnicity.
