<p>I AM a US citizen - I jumped through the same hoops that everyone else did here.</p>

<p>Do you want to sympathize with me about why I didn’t get into Harvard Med or Yale Med? Do you think I don’t know what it feels sometimes to be an overrepresented minority in higher education?</p>
<p>The issue is that you are trying to place the blame of not getting into good schools on race+gender. Like I said before, and I will say again, you can wallow in those explanations if that makes you feel better at the day, but the reality is that you can’t keep assigning to the blame to that. </p>
<p>Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to have no sympathy for you or purposely attempting to be antagonistic, but it seems like you are just fishing for sympathetic posts here.</p>
<p>Best of luck to you.</p>
