Sure you evaluate our "lived experiences," but what about our non-lived experiences? Like, I once dreamed I was a 17th century cockney chimney sweep. Does that come into play in your holistic evaluation?
I don't get the rationale behind looking at the educational level of the candidate's parents or family members. This is irrelevant, there is no scientific evidence proves a student can succeed in a specific program if their parents achieved a high academic pedigree. A student can achieve a distinction if they have the passion and talent even if both parents are illiterate. Why we have to add that social stratification into the academic system? It's pathetic.
Being first generation is actually a benefit in the college admissions process where you're often more likely to get accepted into a university if your parents don't have any higher institute degree. The reason for this is the same reason behind Affirmative Action, it's meant to break people out of generational poverty and help grow wealth for them.
They had more support overall in their life. If I had to choose someone who had to raise themselves and had stupid abusive parents and had a 3.5 versus a wealthy student with PHD parents who could support them through so many issues and git a 3.9 or 4.0 I would choose the former as they can handle shit. The latter may be able to but we do not know.
