seriously now, how much of an edge do we really have?

Yeah thefranchize9 ive been wondering the same thing about forgiveness for minorities.

I scored double 800s on my SAT IIs (WH and US) score 5s on Human Geography, US, World History, and English Composition, and scored a 4 on European History.

My scores and thefranchize9’s easily put us at the top of the African American/minority pool, but our gpas are far lower than our testing indicates they should be (mine is less than a 3.5).

I realize that colleges often will forgive testing for minorities in exchange for class rank/gpa, but does anyone know if they will do the opposite for testing especially considering minority test scores are very low compared to asians and whites on average?
