Is it harder for Asians to get into college?

So do you think all the Asian high school students should get together and establish limits on who gets to apply to what USNWR top 50/25/10/Ivy League college?

It should be self regulating logic. I think the whole chase for prestige is making a lot of people illogical. BTW Asians are benefitting from such self regulating logic. If all races started chasing the Ivies at 2-3Xtimes the current amount . Then Asian acceptance rates would plummet. Things could be a lot worse.

<p>Ok, so let me get this straight: students all over the country with tippy-top GPAs in extremely rigorous curricula and tippy-top standardized test scores, great extracurriculars and community service, etc., etc. should self-regulate by NOT applying to tippy-top colleges and universities? Yeah, that makes sense.</p>
