I had a 3.9 and a 30 on the ACT, AND I took all the hardest classes my school had! And I went to a great school! I hate to pull this card, but if I wasn't a white male, I honestly think I would've gotten in.
Yes, I do. Why would I lie about that? Grades and ACT aren't everything. On the flip side, I also know people with much higher grades/ACT that didn't get in. Personally, I almost applied but didn't for undergrad. I have a stronger chance if I finish my degree then apply. If not, then I'll try again.
And so... do you think I got into good schools because I'm a non-white female? I highly doubt race was the deciding factor. Back in April, I'm pretty sure the supreme court upheld the ban on Affirmative Action here. They may have changed that but I haven't heard anything about it.
