Here is the reason (information from college vine)
The Z-list has been in the spotlight for the past few years—and not for flattering reasons—as it was part of a filing by Students For Fair Admissions (SFFA) in a lawsuit against Harvard, accusing the university of discrimination. According to the SFFA’s filings, white students make up approximately 70% of the students on the Z-list—a stark contrast when you consider that just 2% of students admitted through the Z-list are Black.



Legacy students are also over-represented on the Harvard Z-list—from 2014 to 2019, about half of the students Z-listed were the children of Harvard alumni. At Harvard, legacy students have a 33% acceptance rate, compared with an overall acceptance rate of under 6%—many see their predominance on the Z-list as yet another advantage that children of alumni and donors have over average applicants.



It’s also been hinted at that the Z-list favors the wealthy. For an article in The Crimson in 2010, the paper interviewed 28 Z-listed students and discovered only four of them were receiving financial aid from the university, an enormous difference when compared to the 70% of the overall student body that receives financial aid from the university

I’m grateful to be in Australia as my school is doing a “head start” program. It’s where you can go to uni whilst in high school and it guarantees you a position to go to that university

TLDR ; the secret Way to get excepted in is to get excepted and take a gap year

This actually sounds like a win-win. You get into a good school and get a free year to travel or do whatever you want
