They don't.Asian attendance already has sky rocketed due to affirmative action. Thats why they are crying because trump talking about taking it away. Asians benefit from affirmative action more then blacks.
Asians DID benefit from the removal of A.Action. READ WHAT IM WRITING.
When affirmative action is removed and its not longer about racial quota and ONLY about test scores. ASIAN AMERICAN FLOOD the colleges because they get the better scores, in other words, WHEN YOU TAKE AWAY AFFIRMATIVE ACTIONS, WHITE LOSE, ASIANS WIN.
In a 2013 study, white adults in California were asked how they felt about considering grades and test scores more heavily in college admissions, rather than a holistic system that included more subjective criteria like “leadership.” Whites who were asked the question with no other background favored relying heavily on grades and test scores. But white people who were told that Asian students were overrepresented at the state’s universities changed their minds. One possible interpretation is they realized they were likely to gain from a holistic admissions system rather than lose.
Asians DO WANT affirmative action because then it puts a quota on their admission. It's been a loooooong issue with them the ivy league and being turned down despite having perfect scores.
