<p>Well kk, that's how I interpreted So Authentic.</p>

<p>Sarcasm? (Sorry the internet makes it hard)</p>

"I wonder if professors expect a little less from URM. Graduation in itself doesn't prove anything."</p>

<p>you people are in serious denial. it quite pathetic that your not able to accept the obvious truth. i'm sure that your willing to come up with 101 excuses, but none the less, facts don't lie.</p>

<p>You obviously can't read!</p>

<p>How do URMs do on GREs?</p>

<p>Milki-Sarcasm? (Sorry the internet makes it hard)</p>

<p>ur so dumb......because i was actually commending you.......Gosh, Ignorance should be a felony</p>

<p><em>sigh</em> It was either that or gosh...nice interpreting milki..ugh.</p>

<p>Like I said emotions can't be transfered perfectly via text. I use Digg a lot so I have an eye out for sarcasm ;)</p>

<p>Well thanks for commending me :)</p>

<p>Digg ((whatever that is failed you))</p>

<p><em>shakin my head</em> It was either that or <em>sigh</em>.......
If ignorance was a crime you'd be the first to go to jail</p>

<p>If bad Grammar were a crime you'd be the first to go to jail</p>

<p>basically which describes you....because clearly you can't detect that I wasn't being sarcastic; I was actually commending you so basically you're losing interpretation skills....Definition #2...((ding dong))</p>

<p>If stupidity was a crime; without a doubt you'd end up in jail</p>

<p>Grammar has nothing to do with sarcasm. I fail to see how one can CLEARLY understood one's emotions and feelings by just looking at plain text.</p>

<p>Also stupidity isn't a synonym for Ignorant! Congrats!!!!</p>

<p>"If bad Grammar was a crime you'd be the first to go to jail"</p>

<p>-I think it's "if bad grammar 'were' a crime".... :)</p>

<p>D'oh...Fixed :)</p>

<p>"How do URMs do on GREs?"</p>

<p>Not sure how they do on the GRE's, but they do much worse than whites/asians as a group on the MCAT.</p>

<p>How ironic...coming from>>..Milki.....Thanks KK......</p>

<p>"Also stupidity isn't a synonym for Ignorant! Congrats!!!!"</p>

<p>I wasn't looking for a synonym you cheeseball...its a new description of you</p>

I hate faulty research and conclusions drawn on such. you'llsee, I have no problem with you holding a pro-AA stance, but to link garbage in order to support your belief makes your argument garbage.</p>

<p>That article makes many many unsupported assumptions. The first is that white legacy applicants are similarly qualified to the average URM. This assumption is patently false, as many white legacy males and white legacy females are most likely either enrolled in very strong public schools or elite private institutions such as Roxbury Latin, Windsor, Horace Mann, etc. Thus they are on average much more qualified, thus leading to a higher acceptance rate.

<p>Whoa Collective synergy, </p>

<p>If anyone is making "faulty statements" it is you.</p>

<p>the article that OP cited (which is why it is imporant to cite your sources) is from the Journal on Blacks in Higher Education and they have been following Blacks & in higher education for a long time and can back up their research</p>

<p><a href="http://www.jbhe.com/features/50_blackstudent_gradrates.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.jbhe.com/features/50_blackstudent_gradrates.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>The article does not discuss legacies (maybe you are mixing up threads). Just because you don't agree something, don't automatically put it off as faulty research especially since you haven't presented any literature reviews or studies to back up your assumptions (it will get you a failing grade in college).</p>

<p>You're connected stupidity with ignorance in your previous posts. You need to review the definition of ironic.</p>

<p>Authentic, does your life really suck that much and does your ego rest on the deflating others?</p>

<p>Whatever...moron</p>

<p>"Authentic, does your life really suck that much and does your ego rest on the deflating others?"</p>

<p>Your grammar sucks!!!......the above sentence makes my lips jumble while reading</p>

<p>"You're connected stupidity with ignorance if your previous posts."
Ditto buddy.....&& you need to see a grammar doctor....!</p>

<p>allI have to say to you is "How Ironic"....I've learned growing up that stupidity is ubiquitous; its going to be everywhere i go...clearly milki proved me right</p>

<p>wooooooooww.....</p>

<p>Sybbie719; that was harsh...kinda true though</p>

<p>URMS admitted at top school are just as qualified academically as their white/asian counterparts.</p>
