Asians considered a minority at MIT?

They reject a lot more asian now because the diversity of the schools is so off if they continue to accept more asians, too many asians are alike.
Unless you excel as a math genius, like get to AIME, USAMO, MOP, and ARML, then your chances are not as high. Many asians that are good at math select MIT over Harvard (from my experience) and most of them are Math and Physics genius. So being an “average” asian would not set you apart at all.
