You can't argue against basing admission on academic merit because to gain that merit, we all start from the same place. It's called Public
Education
If a group is having a problem getting into college based on a merit system, the answer would be simple - DO BETTER IN SCHOOL!
Sorry but that whole socioeconomic excuse is exactly that - an excuse. A copout. A reason to not try as hard as other people yet expect more.
Goddamned entitlement-driven welfare programs now have people believing they're to gain more by doing nothing.
