  1. So in other words, getting rid of the SAT makes it a lot easier to admit minorities in the desired ratio, i.e. percentage of population. So the admissions department will look really great for a while.

    However the U will then have the issue on what to do with a bunch of students who should never have been admitted, and a lot of them will be minorities.Report

  2. Keep in mind nearly half of white students at Harvard are legacy, i.e., they wouldn’t make the cut if it were just based on SAT scores.Report
