Harvard University has been sued over its racially discriminative selections process, a case which could be reviewed before the Supreme Court. Plaintiffs in the case contend Harvard gives lower personality scores to Asian Americans, which weigh down their applications despite high academic achievement.
Only 17.6% of Asians receive top scores of 1 or 2 when it comes to their personal ratings, compared to 21.3% of White applicants. Asians score the lowest of any ethnic group at Harvard when it comes to this score constantly getting pinged on traits such as “courage,” “leadership” and “likability.”
The Princeton Review has recommended Asian applicants stop saying they want to be doctors, or major in math or science, so they don’t appear “too Asian” and drag down their likability ratings.
