bakkes case
affirmative action programs are primarily intended to
allan bakke believed he had been rejected for admission solely because of his
race
minority status
test scores
For the second dropdown (Allan Bakke's belief about rejection): Allan Bakke was a white applicant rejected by a medical school with affirmative action policies that reserved seats for minority applicants. He believed his rejection was due to his race (he was white, not a minority, and his test scores were competitive). "Minority status" is what the program favored, not why he was rejected (he didn't have minority status). "Test scores" were not the issue as his scores were good. So the reason he believed he was rejected was his race.
