Using racial quotas in universities admissions is unfair

Using racial quotas in universities admissions is unfair. Affirmative action is racism that US universities use different SAT standard to decide each ethnic groups. The different SAT standard caused excellent students are pushed out of universities. For example, many Asian and Asian American students apply to enter Universities and have a large pressure. Most universities require, if all conditions are the same, Asian students have to get a SAT grade of 140 or higher than other races. Many US universities are evaluating applications of Asian American students for admission. The way universities judge individual student performance criteria for admission is unfair. Admission restrictions caused more and more Asian American students deliberately hidden their Asian identity in the application. The competition is unfair because they are Asian identity and must to have higher scores than other races. Asian and Asian Americans students are often defined as "high-achieving minorities" in the traditional sense. But don’t all Asian students are very smart and named the academic robot. The problem is more obvious because of the increase fierce competition, making the US elite universities rise point in SAT and it makes more and more Asian students to focus more on the examination. The unworthiness affirmative action influence the spirit style of US Universities and also caused a certain impact. I think US universities should reform the affirmative action in the admission process. Asia students and other race students should be equal in SAT standard. Reducing to focus on SAT and more focus individual students’ special character and skills etc.
