So in other words, since nonminorities are denied admissions because of low GPA or SAT scores, that means that minorities are gaining admission based on merit. Is that correct?

The system of AA in college admissions has an excellent record. You could fill a book with the thousands of success stories associated with it. Regardless of the myths you may hear on the internet, the only non-minority students that have been turned away because of AA have been students with marginal GPAs and SAT scores. Most of these students would probably be better off going to a community college for a year or two till they get their act together anyway.
