I know for sure a story about an Asian international student who experienced probably much more suffering in 5 years and finally got probably a higher score (167) but rejected by all the T14s he applied, and only admitted to a top 30 law school (thankfully with almost full tuition scholarship).
People always interpret the world in the way they want to. That's why we "make mistakes as long as we strive." I have no interest in advocating which way to interpret the world should be justified. Sometimes, I only cannot control my will to say something for those who lose, since those who are successful feel not satisfied unless they can justify why they deserve, and they obviously have much more power in fulfilling this desire.
I have no doubt OP is a good guy. But you should thank the policy that favors URM. This is the most important factor that gets you admitted. If you believe it's justified, why not thank it? If you believe it not justified, why not admit it? To have the willingness to either thank or admit this fact will increase, rather than decrease, the meaningfulness of this story.
I am not an American. I am a stranger. All I have is confusion, and all I want is "more light".
