Hindustan,
You're completely wrong to characterize a school's selection process as "racist." What they're doing is looking for diversity, not just diversity of nationality, but of work experience, personalities etc...
Imagine a business school where 90% of the students are Indians who work in IT. I wouldn't go to that school if you paid me. Likewise I wouldn't go to a business school of all American i-bankers. And I wouldn't go to a business school that was all men.
So you can call school's racist, sexist, classist, whatever you want but you're dead wrong.
GMAT scores are not the ultimate measure of a person's worthiness to get into business school (although I wish they were, because then I would be a shoe-in at most schools), so if someone with a low GMAT is accepted because they have interesting work experience, or an unusual background, you can't say they don't deserve to be at the school while someone who has a very generic profile and a high GMAT deserves to be there.
