This is why so many of them are in politics. Politics attract people who believe they know more and are better at ruling than "normal" people.

Damn, I got reminded of how I'm a loser again

Looks like I'm going to have to masturbate

"Having said that, do not let ANYONE tell you that you are not better than them, because you are. We are the elite, we are the 0.0000001% of the world who have spent the last four years of our lives either blackmailing or working our asses off. There was something that got you here, whether it was daddy's money or your #1 ranking in the nation, you are here and you are better. You have mercilessly beaten out your friends, your girlfriends, your boyfriends, your brothers, your sisters and every one you have loved. Don't apologize for it, revel in it. YOU. ARE. BETTER. Why deny it?"

Holy fucking shit, what a cunt.

I agree on the first article.
But then I read the second one, and I say the whole thing is a troll.

>>5341849
We ARE better you little dumbshit-nigger-with-no-future.

>>5341874
Unless you go to Harvard, Princeton, or Yale, you aren't worth shit, and you're the kind of person Ivy Leaguers want to see suffer.

>>5341802
Princetonfag here.
This isn't satire. And even if it was, a lot of people agree with it (myself included; she does raise some excellent points, and we really did work harder than pretty much every other student in the country, so we do deserve it.)

>daddy's money
>you are here and you are better

Because having rich parents makes you better!

Useless cunt. I'd kill her with my own bare hands.

Yawn. Another asshole Ivy League kiddie thinks she's better than me for going to a school that costs 5 times as much as my humble state university.

Harvardite here.

I have to say, I've met people like that. I can think of three, and one of them died in a drunk driving accident.

The other two don't actually work.

Everyone else I met was just as normal as can be.

>>5341802
1. satirical joke, half-truths
2. she's fat and ugly. guaranteed.

>>5341907

>>5341937
Financial aid is a wonderful thing. Princeton's is one of the best providers in the country.
There's a good chance that, unless her parents made 130k+, she received financial aid. If they make less than 70k, she pays nothing, and really is superior to you in every way.
Well, she is already, since she'll make more money in five years than you'll ever see in your life.

I think she does make a couple of good points. About life in general. And about YOU being better than anyone else in the universe. However I don't think this message is exclusive to Princeton people. Hell I think that this message goes for <60 IQ point people too. If your only standard is intelligence then you've obviously missed a point somewhere.

It does however make sense to live life to the fullest because you've only got one shot. So you'd better live before you're dead.

>>5341907
obvious troll is obvious.

>>5341963
Her picture is in the article.
She's neither fat, nor ugly. She's one of those prissy asian girls.

What is this infatuation everyone has of being "better"?

I'm trying to post her new manifesto posted on facebook this year, but non-ascii text is fagging it up.

>>5341978
>thinks that picture is actually her

>>5341968
>superior to you in every way.

I 100% guarantee I could KO her in one swing.

there are people that are inferior to others, but going to princeton vs going to another reputable, if non-ivy league university, is pretty much the same.

THEY WILL BE THE FIRST ONES NAILED TO THE WALLS WHEN THE REVOLUTION COMES @_____@

>>5341968
She's probably majoring in Poly Sci., and won't get a job that pays 100 grand right out of college, thus bitch at the world and be generally more uppity. This will, in turn, cause her to cling even tighter to her ivy league education, and use it to reinforce her vapid superiority of those of us who went to humble state schools making humble wages as engineers and lab assistants.

>>5341993
It is. That's her facebook photo. My friend knows her in real life. That really is her.
Name is Stephanie Xu.

I wouldn't know or care since I'm an engineering student. And the closest you could get to elitism in such a field comes from students from Cal Tech and MIT. But I have beaten out students form both schools for internships and research opportunities. So I don't really see why paying at least 5x as much in tuition makes someone more elite.

You guys are all getting trolled by the OP of this thread and the operator of that blog. That message wasn't anything about dictatorship or elitism, it was inspiration. It was saying "you've come this far, beaten out everyone else in the country; don't stop here, keep excelling". You're all fucking idiots. I go to community college and got that shit. Way to twist words around, idiots.

>>5342016
Princeton's engineering is actually pretty decent. Their ChemE (my major), is quite good, and many go to excellent Grad schools.

That said, anyone can succeed at any school if they work hard enough. Also, people who rely upon the name brand of their schools, or who believe that they are superior for simply getting into an Ivy League school, are cunts and should die.

>>5342015
Not who you're replying to but, post a link to her facebook here.

Also, for someone oh-so-superior, her writing skills seem rather mediocre.

>>5342038
Fuuuuck, I really wish I could post her new message for this year.
It's much worse, since it blatantly tells you to cheat and lie and fuck people over in order to succeed.

>>5342052
It's closed off, but I'll provide a screen shot of her new message. I'll see if I can find a message with a picture too. Give me ten minutes.

Apparently a lot of non-Princeton people gave her a lot of shit last year, so she doens't have a profile picture, and her name is not clickable.

And yet she continues this shit.

That girl is right.

Of course, this board is filled with a bunch of welfare losers living in their mother's basement and being online 24/7. It's only natural that most of you will whine at it because it insults your huge egos. But no one really gives a damn about any of you, so nothing you do here will mean anything.

Carry on with bitching and moaning.

The rise of the proletariat can not be held back by elitist capitalist pigs!

wow, what a bunch of whiney baby losers in this thread.
What's wrong, couldn't get into a real college?

>>5342091
Way to explain how she is right you dumb fucking shit. What makes you think anyone gives a damn about her either except from the old laugh ? Get over yourself you daft cunt

I attend an Ivy League school and I thoroughly believe -- no, I KNOW -- that I and my peers are more cultured, more clever, more interesting, smarter, funnier, sexier, and simply BETTER than everyone else. I am not trolling. I haven't even bothered to reads this thread before posting this because I already know that it'll just be a bunch of uninformed angry faggotry.

>>5342110

And yes I made a typo you worthless faggots. I'm sure by the time I post this, one of you bitter retards will have gleefully pointed this out while eagerly refreshing to see my reaction to being put in my place

>>5342110
Her Ivy League is better than yours.
To her, you are shit.

haha... she got A's in piss easy high school and she thinks she is all that. brilliant. she probably just watches too much TV drama shows.

Man, what a libertarian chick. No wonder I'm a socialist who is for the abolition of all private schools.

What is this so called greatness that fascinates so many people. You want to be great to satisfy your ego? Is your ego so weak that you have to demean others to sustain it? Instead of trying prove to everyone that you're better than them, be better than them. And I'm not telling you to be a general nice guy. I'm telling you to live your ideals, whatever they might be, not to impress others, but to impress yourself.

4.0 GPA, 2400 SATs, 800 in Math II, Physics, and Biology SAT IIs, >200 volunteer work hours, captain of track and soccer, leader of debate team and robotics team (state qualifier), national honor society, work at job 4x a week, 4 hrs. a day.

Didn't get into one Ivy league. Went to Ann Arbor instead, majoring in chemical engineering.

Another guy I knew had a 4.0 GPA, 2210 SAT, no leadership, no extracurriculars, one job (coworker with me), same financial status. Got into Princeton. Majoring in Sociology. The guy's not arrogant like OP's girl is.

Still, as someone said in this thread, it could all just be motivating speech aimed at (and it is aimed at) Ivy League students.

>>5342149

it is because you are not black.

>>5342149
seriously? you must be a terrible writer

>>5342110
DERP DERP DON'T YOU MEAN MY PEERS AND I. DERP DERP DERP. NICE IVY LEAGUE EDUCATION. DERP DERP. MY SCHOOL COSTS 4000 DOLLARS A SEMESTER, DERP DERP. YOU MUST BE GETTING RIPPED OFF. HUUUUUURR

lol, 'getting in' is all just fucking luck when you've got thousands of applicants with insane GPAs and abilities.

Going to Olin here, got into U penn but didn't go.

Carnegie Mellon here,

We're better than the ivy league.

My country has two million people and three universities that are organized on a regional, rather than mutually competitive basis. This protestant world of mad egos and stiff competition is as alien to em as wearing a robe and living in the desert.

>>5342164
Haha.
No. No offense, but no.
The top schools are as follows (No particular order): Harvard, Princeton, Yale, MIT, Caltech, Staford
Wharton Business school is also top.
Carnegie Mellon is second tier (still great mind you, but not like the above schools.) It's comparable to the rest of the Ivy League, UChicago, Rice, Duke, etc.

Before choosing my college, I talked with my grandfather, who was a chemical engineer for ~40 years.
He told me that when he worked with people from different universities, people from 'good' schools, like MIT, often didn't know their stuff.
Though this is in the scientific fields, I believe it rings true for the liberal arts as well.

>>5342195
Care to tell us aspiring Chemical Engineers more about your grandfather? What did he do for a living (as in, what sort of company/projects did he work for/on?)
And where did he go to school?

>>5342159
No, my essay skills are decent (never got below a 90 on english essays, 12 on SAT which doesn't mean much since it's formulated, made it to quarterfinals on this writing competition in sophomore year). I applied to 3 ivys (columbia, yale, brown) but I guess I was a generic applicant. There's no 100% chance you'll get in, guess I got really unlucky. Plus engineering seems to be pretty competitive, but the Ivy Leagues I applied to weren't even THAT top in engineering (ann arbor has them beat.)

Michigan has a nice student body though. Universities are really just a label. Most people at Ivy League deserve to be 'elite', but there are still tons of people (yes, don't want to sound like the girl in OP's post, but myself included) who didn't make it in yet are hardworking too.

Overall, applied to 10 schools: Columbia, Yale, Brown, Michigan, GIT, MIT, Penn State, Northwestern, Tufts and John Hopkins. Made it into all except MIT and the Ivy Leagues. Maybe I should've applied to harvard and princeton too... hmm.

>>5342181

How the hell is that objectively determined?

Of course more people talk about the big name schools, but beyond that, what is the difference at that level?

Stanfordfag here. Fuck the Ivies.

West coast = Best coast

>>5341977

I'm going to agree. Some of it sounds like it came from Courage Wolf. Like this part:

>You don't like something? Stop bitching. CHANGE it.
>You've conquered all? Stop wondering. RAISE the bar.
>Someone beat you? Stop rolling in self-pity. Get back up and OBLITERATE them.

And this part:
>Never fear your potential. Never fear your pinnacle.

That's just good motivational advice regardless of your social class. But then she ruins it with this:

>Indulge. Enjoy. Fester.

>>5342149
Was the other guy non-white?

>>5341891
that made me lol, I go to Berkeley, and the same companies that recruit in the ivy league also recruit here. She is funny though.

The cunt in the article does not represent the majority of Princeton or even Ivy League students' opinions whatsoever.

Most people here are humble as fuck, to the point where many even have "Ivy guilt", where they feel as if they either didn't deserve to get in, or they are reluctant to tell others where they go to school, because they don't want to seem pretentious or make others think that they believe themselves to be superior.
Ironically, the people who feel this way are often the brightest ones on the campus. The snobbish cunts who think they're hot shit are the legacies and recruited athletes, most often.

What major is she studying anyhow?

>>5342236
We are both asian (chinese, specifically.)

There are millions of people "better" than you, and millions of people "worse".

What the fuck does it even matter?

>>5342204
To LSU, and he ended up working for the Dupont company.
He worked in the research department, as far as I know(I never asked him that much about what he did, only when he volunteered information about it).
I know he has a few patents, but sharing what they're of would reveal a bit too much information, since you could find his name, personal info, in google.

She obviously is very insecure about herself, and finds it of utmost importance to define herself by her level of education.

>>5342255
Too bad people like her are the ones who run corporations and own the banks.
She is why society is shit.

I honestly cant wait till she gets raped, that will shatter her ego. Some girls honestly deserve it

>>5342274
I don't think she's Jewish brah

>>5342281
We should totally form a rape party and fuck her up.
Is anyone else in the New Jersey area?

Politicians are liars who normally know absolutely nothing other than how to line their own pockets.

>>5342208
>>5342208
My Dad's a Thermodynamics Professor at the Engineering Department at Brown, he told me that their admissions is run by recently graduated undergrads and that they mainly accept kids who are just like themselves rather than choosing what's best for the school. This applies to most other Ivy Leagues as well, which is why I'm probably going to transfer to Ann Arbor or go there.

Closing of the American Mind

>>I attend an Ivy League school and I thoroughly believe -- no, I KNOW -- that I and my peers are more cultured, more clever, more interesting, smarter, funnier, sexier, and simply BETTER than everyone else. I am not trolling. I haven't even bothered to reads this thread before posting this because I already know that it'll just be a bunch of uninformed angry faggotry.

I definitely agree with this sentiment, but the differences are quantitative, not qualitative.

She'll definitely have a 1-2 advantage over most over 4 year graduates in the job market. Of course this depends a lot on what she majors in, whether she goes to grad school/or whatever, but the liberal democratic order is totalizing. She is not the Overman, nor is anyone else. There is no essential difference between her and the masses beyond a difference in IQ, health, a good work ethic, and money (in the future). The pathos of distance that once existed between the aristocracy and the people in the ancien regime is gone. People in the Ivy League still listen to pop music, enjoy bathroom jokes, and generally dislike Ingmar Bergman films.

Even if do ever manage to make it into politics, they'll still be a nerve-wreck for half their lives trying to serve "the people".

There are huge differences, I've experienced them, but the essence is the same.

>>5342479
Yay, more for Ann Arbor <3.

>>5342565
I'm working on the essays for the applications right now. I'm riding on the fact that Michigan doesn't look at your freshman year, and that my grades have increased by marginally over the years. Not to mention my Dad and Sister went there :<

>>5342565
UCLA was here, Michigan is for fags

No, I do not care about your girlfriend, or your sister, nigger.

>>5342615
Washington was here, UCLA is for rich asian snobs not unlike the bitch who wrote the Princeton letter. Also, persian guidos fucking everywhere.

Face to /r9k/ the people who go to these schools are the elite. They have the power they have because they've earned it, because they deserve it.

As for myself, I'm just studying computer science at a state school so I can be of use to the elites as a software developer.

Ivyleagefag here. Don't let her give you a bad impression of us. Most kids here are nice and generally pleasant people to be around. There are people like her but they are far from the majority.

>>5342302
lol, ugly cunts.

Ivyfag here for undergrad and law school.

These opinions are espoused by an annoying, vocal minority.

I agree that working harder and getting more makes you better. If you worked just as hard and chose to go to a state school, I'm not better than you. Likewise, if you went here because of daddy's money, I'm better than you.

ITT: /b/ level trolling tailored to /r9k/'s educational focus.

Seriously, guys...

>>5342704
>they've earned it, they deserve it.

I'm on 4chan.. those are a given.

delicious cake how?

What a charming young lady. If she goes into politics or industry, you can see she'll go far.

You little people just want to hold her back, to make yourselves feel bigger. Despicable.

I guess this makes me a bit glad I chose to goof off and hang with my girlfriend in high school instead of stressing out about beating out everyone else.

I'm going to a state university now, and I'm peaceful and happy.

Just chill out robots

>>5341802
I used to hate egotistical Ivy League students, as I went to high school with tons of prospective douchebags such as the woman the OP references. However, what I've discovered is that these people have wasted away so much of their youths that they need something to convince them it was worthwhile. It tends to be pretentiousness, egotism, arrogance. And perhaps it will help them become rich and/or famous once they graduate. But I don't believe for a moment that they will be happier than the average American. In the end they're going to die just as everyone else will, and their thoughts and dreams will die with them. Happiness is the only thing to strive for, in the end -- and for many, education, learning, and exploration of the unknown is the key to happiness (myself included, when relevant). But I'm not so deluded that I think busting my ass for years on end to get into what people think is a "good school" makes me better than anyone else. I think there are lazy people, motivated people, people I would want to associate myself with and those who I wouldn't. But to say that makes me better than them? Preposterous.

>>5342819
Also, the answer is obvious -- throw head at cake.

>>5343020
>> However, what I've discovered is that these people have wasted away so much of their youths that they need something to convince them it was worthwhile.

Fuck, I wasted my entire youth playing dwarf fortress, reading comics and in late HS, browsing 4chan, and I'm going to shitty Case Western. How can I justify my existence?

>>5343068
Are you happy? If not, ask yourself why. Then ask yourself, what's preventing you from attaining happiness. Then follow through by developing a plan to attain happiness by rising above everything that's keeping you down.

>>5343068
>How can I justify my existence?

Did you enjoy it?
If you enjoyed it, then that is the justification.

>>5342819

Eat Wheaties.

>>5343114
So enjoying yourself, chasing temporary feelings caused by chemical reactions in your brain, is all there is to life..?

>>5343276
Yes. You must realize how fucking awesome it is. Stop belittling everything around you.

>>5343276
Basically, yeah.

Since this is /r9k/ I also need to insult you with generic comments, so, VIRGIN FAGGOT MAN THE FUCK UP

This doesn't prove the whole out look of the ivy league. They fucking posted that article to make fun of that egoistic bitch and show ivy leaguers not to be like that. No doubt she was some rich daddy's girl from New Jersey with an ego bigger than her intelligence. She should be taken into Newark and be raped by gangs to death. Show her how much high class gets her around a nigger with a gun.

I go to Amherst and I can say with complete confidence that my education is far superior to hers. However, they teach humility here at Amherst College, so I would never create a manifesto degrading others because they did not or do not attend a prestigious university.

Furthermore, I am almost certain that this student is pursuing an inherently worthless degree, something full of bullshit like Poli Sci or Sociology, that she will likely compliment in the future with an equally useless law degree.

She is in no place to demean others or accuse them of being "lesser" when her degree will land her a dead-end job at some over-sized law firm in New York where she will slowly have her soul-crushed by the harsh reality that awaits her outside her lush Princeton dormitory.

while i do think ivy leaguers probably do feel a sense of accomplishment and they probably do feel better than most people i dont think most of them are dicks about it. most people in this world, whether successful or not, are not such douches as this girl.

sometimes i get down on myself for not accomplishing what i could have, but its more important to have fun than to be financially successful. although making more money can lead to more fun it often goes in hand with more stress and less time to have fun.

what would happen to these fucks if there was some kind of apocalyptic even where we all had to survive by hunting down our food, scavenging resources, killing others to defend ourselves? these people are only elite because of this social construct we have created.

Absolute delusion. Nothing more, nothing less.

I'll take my West Point over that Ivy League shit anyday.

<-- Recommend reading for people ITT

It's a sort of self-empowerment rather than elitism. It's like if a group of jugglers went to circle-jerk each other over how they are better than the common folk who can't even juggle. It may be true, but the juggler group's definition of success is only juggling. They are the elites, in their own world. You should be the elite in your own world too.

Lol, this girl swallowed Rand hook, line and sinker.

This article just proves that the university admission process in the United States has very little to do with intelligence.

Even though I went to a top tier university, people like this piss me off.

I learned more about the world by working as a labourer to support myself during university than I ever did in my studies. Most of my classmates were essentially just idiots that could calculate and write essays.

>>5342149

wow, i got into princeton with a 1900, but of course, i won a championship, so that might have factored in

>>5342149
They could probably tell that you're a boring dork.

>>5343883
what kind of championship? AIso what race are you?

SATs are fucking bullshit anyways, I got 2200, then 2300 on the practice test, but got only 2160 on the actual thing. 5 questions wrong = major difference. I got lucky on the practice ones (which are probably easier) but screwed upon on the real ones.

Tons of SAT stories. One guy had like a 2.9 and got 2280, one guy had 3.9 and got 1900-2000.

>>5341802
>daddy's money
>daddy's

She admitted it herself. That doesn't maker her better. Self-absorbed bitch is self-absorbed. It sucks, but nothing is going to shake her pompous convictions. Just wait til she gets date-raped, then YOU'LL be the one laughing in her face.

>>5343896
>>implying that people at Ivy leagues aren't supposed to work hard and have no lives

durr hurrr, jealous much? Guy at Ohio State here, that's basically the standard application status for an ivy league applicant. In fact, that guy may have been underachieving their standards.

>>5343910

sports championship, i am asian if that helps (it doesn't)

>Just wait til she gets date-raped
Well, I was optimistic about the quality of r9k after a long break, but no, it's shit as ever. If I had more free time today I would totally troll you, you deserve it.

>>5343948
guy from the original quote here, lol I guess it doesn't help, unless you won a basketball championship or something.

Too many Asians play soccer/track, and our team sucked anyhow, so since I was the only decent one I was picked captain. But if I went to another school, I would be at lower varsity level.

What sport was it?

Kill the rich.

>>5343993

it doesn't matter, being a champion is the best thing you can do for your resume

I can't wait until this planet is consumed by blackness and blood. I want her to die. I really mean it.

>>5343769

So then they are actually the best at being intelligent, then what are we the best at?

>>5343618
Honestly, that's a pretty crappy book. The author is just as elitist as the pricks he describes in his book, and he's a douchebag to boot.
Princeton's student body has changed quite a bit in the last few decades. It has among the best financial aid in the country, and a majority of the students are on some form of aid. They've been reducing legacy and sports-based admissions in order to attract even more highly intelligent (yet still well-rounded) students. A lot of the elitism has departed the campus, and although many people still associate Princeton with rich snobs, most students are very nice and humble (except the queen bitch in the article, and a few other self-entitled cunts.)

I should probably mention that I know people who went to state school and still held similar attitudes about their schools. And it's not even as if Ivies have a greater percentage of snobs; assholes exist everywhere and are always a vocal minority.

any one else find that article "hitleresque"?

>>5344240
Admission into good schools isn't based on intelligence, it's based on accumulating achievements that look good on a resume.

it's easy to pick apart an ivy-league attendee

just ask what university their lecturers came from then tell them off from having to be taught by someone never attended the ivy league

This thread is trollsier than the trollsiest political threads. You hit a new high/low, /r9k/.

>>5345160
Which, to be honest, is much better than distilling an applicant into a single number.

Initiative should always be rewarded. Intelligence is worth fuckall if you're too lazy to apply it.

>>5345216
Because anyone who doesn't accumulate a bunch of resume points must not be learning on their own or using their time productively at all right? The point of education should be to EDUCATE those most fit, not reward people for sucking a lot of dick.

>>5345243
There's a inverse correlation with intelligence and initiative. This is a basic, universal law of physics. I'm surprised you're regurgitating what we already knew and contributing absolutely nothing to the discussion.

>>5345216
Because spending 4 hours a day studying so that you can get straight As shows more initiative than a person who studies 30 mins a day, gets mixed Bs and As, yet spends their free time learning other subjects for the pure enjoyment of it?

Or someone who plays violin for an orchestra has more initiative than a person who plays guitar in a band?

Don't be absurd. The kinds of activities Ivy League selectors look for are done purely because the applicants want to get into an Ivy League. That doesn't show they are talented or have initiative - it just shows that they place a very high value on getting into an Ivy League.

How much debt is this ubermensch slated to graduate with?

>>5345361
Your post is confusing as fuckall.

This is also assuming that volunteering or doing hobbies detracts from appropriate studying time, as well as the opposite, but that is a very bad assumption, because they are not necessarily affected by one another.

Two people with grades within fractions of each other are separated by the other things on their resume.

And let's face it. Everyone gets a grade for classes. Volunteering and initiative regarding activities is the best way to make your application stand out, because it is the most diverse part.

You faggots that don't realize this and cling to GPAs and standardized tests as a sole predictor of performance make me laugh.

>>5342038
no, you are the troll my friend.

>>5345479
The problem with using extracurriculars as a measuring stick is that intelligent people could be learning on their own with their free time, but that's impossible to quantify and list on a resume in most cases. I don't think there's necessarily a better system, I just think it's stupid to assume that people with tons of extracurriculars have more "initiative" - maybe more initiative to get into a certain school, but not necessarily more initiative to learn or passion for interests outside of academia.

>>5345505
Studying in one's own time has its own benefits.

However, I believe it's more wise to recognize that doing that isn't provable, and provable things are typically (and definitely not always) what you'd want to put on a resume.

In the end, it's best to recognize that the system uses both resume flair and standard test performance as a judge; I've just been dicking around on the point that they should probably put less faith in the standardized tests scores, because fuck me lateral if IQ has not become a dick whipping metric.

>>5345505
I see what you're saying (not who you responded to), but the things is that people who are interested in other subjects usually have tangible results of their interests and exertions. Honestly, anyone can say they've read scientific articles or researched African Colonial history; it doesn't mean it's true.

Usually, a student who legitimately has an interest in another subject will take the course at a local college or will approach other institutions for research opportunities. If they're really passionate and really legitimate, they will have something to prove this dedication. Maybe they volunteered in a hospital, worked as a lab assistant, shadowed a professor conducting research, etc.

Saying that a person should be judged based on their assertions that they've read a certain subject with no tangible proof to reinforce their statements is foolish. An admissions officer has no way to verify these assertions, no one to contact for evidence, no school records, etc.

If a person is intelligent, then they WILL find the opportunities they seek, barring occasional unfortunate circumstances. And even if the student doesn't make it to a top school, he is intelligent and will do well no matter where he goes, so long as he pushes himself. Then he can compete with most Ivy League students.

1) It's "uberwench" in this case
2) None whatsoever, more than likely. With the top tier private universities, either your parents can pay all of the tuition for you, or you're middle class like me and only have to pay for room, board, and books, making the total debt after four years, assuming they took out loans rather than simply paying the couple thousand dollars per semester, $10,000-$20,000 for people in the $70k to $80k ranges, which anyone who has family support will pay off during the school year and leave with $0 in debt. And even if she has debt, she will likely find an excellent job out of college to quickly pay off debts. She's still a cunt, however.

Lol, this bitch is so stupid... here is why:

1) She posts her thoughts online so that everyone knows what she is thinking and how she operates. Judging from the comments, people who know her say she is absolutely serious. A clever person never reveals their true thoughts and motivations.

2) She is Asian, which is a tiny marginalized minority in America. Somewhere around 2-3%. Asians also happen to be a minority who have been historically discriminated against in the business world. Once she gets out of college, she will hit the glass ceiling in no time. She doesn't realize that corporate America will never, ever see her as equal to a white person. Sad, but true.

3) She is female. Again, a heavily discriminated group in the corporate world with a harsh glass ceiling. Women in the upper echelons of the corporate world are never seen as equals to men. Again, sad but true. She will smack into that glass ceiling with the force of an insect hitting the grills of a two ton truck.

I predict that she will blame her inevitable disappointment on some Ayn Rand type argument. She will absolutely refuse to acknowledge racism and sexism in the corporate world. Then, she will marry some beta white guy, who she will pussy whip to no end just to make herself feel better. It would be extra hilarious if she picked a white guy from r9k with an Asian fetish.
