<p>Before you generalize “people like me”, know that I’m a low-income applicant applying through QuestBridge. Even though I benefit from the system, I’ve no doubt that if I get in a school like Stanford, it’ll mainly be because of my social status. Although my academics are great, it’s a dime in a dozen. I would not feel bad or anything when I get accepted because I know I’ve made it so far given less opportunities.</p>
<p>Bottom line: I am not against the system, but I AM disillusioned to how the system works.</p>
