Supplement was about my work experience with an autistic boy at an elementary summer school and how that shaped my aspirations to be a professor. • Teacher Recommendation: Math teacher for 3 yrs, and math team coach. Knew me well. Spanish teacher for 2 yrs, saw a lot of growth in my personality and character as I tried to master a new language. Biology teacher who helped me on my research.

Can you imagine how shitty the college experience would be if the class were 85% Asian as it would be if they accepted people solely based on GPA/SAT scores?

Date: April 1st, 2012 9:56 PM Author: razzle-dazzle theatre look, you can't tell if someone is a superstar from what they did in HS outside of sports and maybe mathematics.
this kid is an Asian striver. he made AIME 4 times without ever making it to USAMO, he is not good at math; he also sucks at sports.
he did well at USABO or whatever, but biology is memorization.
he is not a bad candidate, but enough with this superstar shit. |
|
Date: April 1st, 2012 10:00 PM Author: aromatic shrine ape yeah, i'm actually surprised he got into harvard, to be quite frank. the asian guys i know from california public high schools who went to harvard were far more impressive than him.
making aime is ok but not that hard. the gap between aime and usamo is massive. it's like only 250 people vs. 10,000 or so. |
|
Date: April 1st, 2012 10:01 PM Author: razzle-dazzle theatre making AIME is not at all impressive.

Date: April 1st, 2012 7:06 PM Author: kink-friendly flickering national I think the legitimate argument is that colleges are supposed to function to make the US a truly socially mobile place. A smart kid from the projects can actually escape his poverty if he gets into HUG. If HUG started to select only upper middle class and upper class overachievers with tons of money to afford the internships and education then it would be standing in the way of functioning for social mobility.

Date: April 1st, 2012 8:53 PM Author: cerise provocative elastic band false, he made it to the USAMO competition and he's not just another Mu Alpha Theta member. That's pretty impressive because it requires you to take a nationally administered test and score high enough to advance to subsequent rounds. The next level above that is IMO, I believe. That's the International Math Olympiad. Basically, the 6 most genius math students in high school are selected per country and compete in Greece.
The jump from USAMO to IMO is a big one, but most of the dudes participating in USAMO are fucking hoss at math and science.
Check out the past members of IMO though, they're pretty sick. I knew one of them in 2004. He is making multimillion dollars at dat hejfund in NYC. Parties it up just about every weekend. |

Date: April 1st, 2012 8:57 PM Author: aromatic shrine ape credited. the other posters are jelly bros who have no idea what they're talking about. this asian dude was not someone who just won some local math contests. USAMO is VERY hard to get; you have to get a high combined score on both the AMC and AIME to qualify. if i'm not mistaken only around 250 high school students in the country are invited to write the USAMO exam, which is all proofs. to be on the IMO team you really have to be a fucking genius.
one of my best friends did USAMO all 4 years of high school, got a 800 math SAT when he was in 6th grade and got a 5 on the BC calculus exam in 7th grade. he ended up going to harvard and first week of freshman year he decided to take math 55, arguably the toughest math class at harvard. he said he felt like the dumbest kid there because they were all IMO members and gold medalists. so he dropped it and went down to math 25. |

His parents have been training him since birth and shoving him into whatever looks best.
His hobby is trying to be perfect, and other asians have to be drones to compete. |

seriously? what about hanging out, playing sports, making mistakes, being young and in love, i.e. living, instead of chasing after some deranged Asian American house chink pre med dream? |

Date: April 1st, 2012 10:22 PM Author: cerise provocative elastic band why are the two lifestyles mutually exclusive?
Playing sports - why is it a better use of time than learning the math/science that this dude is? You can still exercise and be healthy without committing the time to team-sports.
Making Mistakes - this happens throughout life no matter what you're doing. Don't see why being an average american doing jackshit in hs makes it any more meaningful.
Being young and in love - you know he wants dat wgwag. Most people on xo probably can't touch this guy's resume and intelligence and still have 0 success with their love life.
It sounds like you're just mad at the stereotypes?
I'd rather my kid be like him than an avg american. |

I'm not saying it's not good... obviously can (not will) teach teamwork and recovering from failure, getting beaten up and humbled etc... i'm asking if there's an appropriate substitute (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1913506&forum_id=2#20369578) |

Date: April 1st, 2012 10:38 PM Author: cerise provocative elastic band Not gonna deny that those are some possible benefits... but I honestly think they are only reaped by those that are successful at it, i.e. big, fast, athletic negroes, whites, and latinos. Do you think the shittier players on a team feel awesome when they are a bench warmer? Do they have respect for an authority figure that doesn't give them playing time? Do they have school spirit and camaraderie with people who could likely make fun of them for their meek, beta physical attributes?
Maybe he plays basketball at the YMCA? Fuck if I know, but this dude has way too high of an opportunity cost to be dabbling with athletic teams. |

Ravi is fucking riskign deportation because he won't admit to a hate crime. |

ANd not all asians are fit for this ideal. I certainly wasn't.
And it has pretty much fucked me for life, thus far. |
