Does being Indian hurt my chance to go to an Ivy League School?

@MandarinSin, the point @GMTplus7 is making is that the average asian admitted student will need a better credential portfolio than the average admitted student.

However, since there are so many more asian applicants, your portfolio of achievements will need to be significantly better than average in order to be admitted, because you are in essence competing against a larger and better prepared (on average) pool of other asian applicants.
