Asians @ Ivies

Like other students, my Asian American son who is now a rising senior, at Yale, was admitted with excellent test scores and stellar academic background . What he also brought to the table was that he excelled in a personal interest at the absolute highest level. Every one of his freshman roommates had also excelled in something outside of traditional academics. They were an amazing group of 4 very different people with each marveling and respecting each other’s ability. Students with high test scores are a dime a dozen. What else does your student have that makes the unique?

As others have said, many employers don’t hire Ivy grads except for Asians. They must have been really exceptional to be admitted.
