I reviewed the post and did question the lack of specificity. The OP specifically stated that he was posting to help others. Without details, I fail to see how his post would help other low income, average stat students. It was the vaguest journey thread I’ve ever read on CC. And it wasn’t just lacking stats, there was no clear explanation of the process or results achieved. I don’t think anyone was exhibiting poor etiquette by asking the questions they did given the stated premise of the thread. In fact, the OP became quite rude. I don’t think the OP’s race changes the fact that the thread was vague with little useful information. In fact, I’d argue it was misleading.
