ACT was very widely accepted when I applied to college (5 years ago). Pretty much all the top schools accepted ACTs. In fact, I Asian-failed my SATs so I only used my ACTs + SAT IIs on my applications.

I'm likely to be inclined to stick to mouse/keyboard for many games as well, but with Steambox being a thing, I can't really think of a way to comfortably use them on a couch.

But also I basically use a 360 controller for any game that isn't FPS/RTS/MMO/MOBA, so this will really have to wow me to get me to buy one.

He's Asian, since when do we have things other than academics.

Some how when an Asian plays instruments like Violin or Piano, it's "standard Asian person", but if a white person does it, it's "extracurricular". Seriously, college admissions are so bonkers stupid.

It's more if you have something that makes you look stupendous, leave out the fallible human thing. Even if that's not shabby either. Standardized tests are incredibly dumb, and hilariously worthless as a measurement of college readiness. But they do cost millions of dollars to design and administer so I guess we can consider them as economic stimuli.

Yeah SAT was more widely accepted for a long time, but most colleges now accept both nowadays. ACT is considered "easier" for most people, although for me the 2 scores were essentially the same (I think I scored like 1-2% better on ACT than SAT...?)
Having a single standardized test for college kind of just helps put people in perspective of where they stand (not for college readiness of course), although obviously there will be outliers where the person is really intelligent but chokes on tests like that (especially that long where you become bored/tired). Having 1 once in a while is fine. I just hate when school systems try to teach to the test and have a yearly mandatory standardized test. I scored higher on AP tests that had teachers who just taught you shit, and didn't teach you to the test. :|

I kind of found it interesting how closely knit the asian students stats were though lol.

I just figured I'd share it since it looked interesting. I know if I didn't have a specific few teachers I had, that I'd probably be as dumb as a doorknob because those few teachers had such a profound affect on how I thought about things.

Cardinal rule of TL: Assume everyone is Asian until you see photographic evidence to the contrary. Even then, it might've been shopped.

Not going to lie, White people have very weird tastes in Asian chicks.
Which is fine for me, since they always choose the ugly ones (by Asian people standards).
