I'm confused, there are plenty of white males at HBS. Have you considered the possibility that there are tons of white guys that are just that much better than you?
Identify not as a straight white male, instead identify as a non-gendered Eskimo rhinoceros... and demand your own bathroom.
Don't invade their safe space BCG. It's much more comforting to imagine you're an oppressed majority rather than simply mediocre.
Write #BlackLivesMatter 100 times in your essay. Legend has it that that's the easiest way to get admits in top ranked schools
It's easier to get into Deliotte than HBS, everyone knows that
Accept his privilege
Damn some people on this thread are hella racist. White privilege refers to how white people have had preferential treatment for centuries which has given them a great head start compared to minorities. Consequently mediocre white people are "ahead" of exceptional minorities. And while we have closed the gap in this tremendously in the last 200 years, it still exists and so the immensely intelligent and woke people of Harvard(the entire reason you want to go there) know that we still need to do more to close the gap.
@D2 - white people don't have "privilege" when it comes to getting into schools. Black people do.
Call daddy.

Trigger. TRIGGER!!
Sure there are lots of white people at HBS that built a startup to provide Africans with free renewable energy, and there are lots of colored people who did teach for America. See the issue?
To answer the original question - be good enough. You either are or you aren't. Simple as that.
Most of HBS class is white and male. They were just better than you.
Your privilege got out of hand OP.
