@ I choose not to believe it. You can believe in whatever you want, I'm not gonna type for hours trying to convince you otherwise.

Wasn't going to post here again, but you have yet to explain the flaw in my argument. If it is indeed a flaw as common as you say it is, I'm sure it would help some students if you would explicate.

Of course you're free to believe whatever you'd like. Notice, however, that I made an argument for my belief in response to your original assertion. Simply asserting that you "believe" a certain thing is true is not particularly persuasive.

@ I'm 99% sure this flawed argument has been on every other LR section I've seen.

So you seriously think they're looking down on people for being non-URM's?

And which flaw, specifically, would that be?

Note that I never asserted whether I believe that "they're looking down on people for being non-URM." I was simply challenging the implication that it would be almost ridiculous to assert that admissions people would disadvantage you for something out of your control. If they significantly reward applicants for something out their control, that the opposite could occur is not beyond belief.

@ I seriously doubt that anyone viewing your application will put you down for things that you have absolutely no control over.

If people viewing your application will put you up for things that you have absolutely no control over, why would you not believe that they would put you down for things that you have absolutely no control over?
