<p>“I think everyone that is a minority should put it down. It’s just a business decision–use every advantage you have available to you. I guarantee the rest of the world will be doing the same thing, if not in college admissions then somewhere else farther down the line. It’s just life.”</p>
<p>I agree. However, also be honest with yourself. You used every advantage that you have available, including the color of your skin, so don’t pretend that you don’t believe that AA gave you an advantage over similarly qualified applicants. While there is NOTHING wrong with using the color of your skin as an advantage, you should accept that AA helped you and not be too indignant when others might suggest the same.</p>
