The reality is that using quantifiable metrics that supposedly determine merit to enter elite universities and professions Asian Americans are heavily over represented in those universities and other minorities are under represented. "The door" is wide open for Asian students and cracked narrowly for others...soon to be narrowed more by the SCOTUS decision unless admissions offices are creative and determined, which I suspect they will be.
The truth is that by using supposedly determinative metrics admissions offices at elite universities could admit 100% white students and justify it with numbers;)
