<p>Thanks guys. I appreciate your affirmation. Yes, I am Asian.</p>
<p>Dodgerblue, yes Jews have endured extreme hardships which can't be discounted, but they are not an underrepresented group in academia. I think Jews make up more or less 5% of the U.S population, but they comprise a much higher percentage of students in the country's top colleges.</p>
<p>jews are a race "semites" not really a race but a blend.... but if you get that far, you can't really... <em>sigh</em> there is so much problems with AA. On NPR this morning they said that blacks have a 30% pass rate of the LSAT and whites have an 80% pass rate... they blame it on the white institutions.... sigh... you can't win. race also functions in the equation, you know? there are mental differences as well as physical differences. and this is why Japan doesn't invent but makes everything around them much smaller and more efficient... so it's a trade off.</p>
