+231 When applying for college, it sucks to be a white male, amirite?

There are actually a lot of colleges receive less applications from male students, so they try and get a more even gender ratio and let in male students with lower scores, also more white students than minority students get accepted into college with lower scores.

Right, but none of those colleges are exactly Ivy League colleges. My guess is they're mostly liberal art types of colleges, which I have no interest in. And the second point simply isn't true. 99% of colleges (made that up, but every college website I've been to says they use it) openly use affirmative action, which means they favor minorities.
