<p>Admissionspro, I wonder if you have any links to date to support that you have posted ( but first, what is “far lower”?, hopefully without just the data from the students of 20 plus years ago applying to elite schools in the Espenshade paper.) </p>
<p>“the overwhelming bulk of the bottom 25 percent of the entire class (those below this middle range) is made up of underprivileged minorities - i.e. blacks and hispanics - at the elite schools, which try to admit about 25 percent of their classes from these underprivileged minority groups”. </p>
<p>Wouldn’t that mean 25 percent of the school is URM? How often is that the case?</p>
<p>Also, are confusing underprivileged with underrepresented?</p>
