📖 題組：
By most standards, Austin Jia holds an enviable position. A rising sophomore at Duke, Mr. Jia attends one of the top universities in the country, setting him up for success. With his high G.P.A., nearly perfect SAT score and activities — debate team, tennis captain and state orchestra — Mr. Jia believes he should have had a fair shot at Harvard, Princeton, Columbia and the University of Pennsylvania. However, those Ivy League colleges rejected him after he applied in the fall of 2015. It was particularly disturbing, Mr. Jia said, when classmates with lower scores than his — but who were not Asian-American, like him — were admitted to those Ivy League institutions. “My gut reaction was that I was super disillusioned by how the whole system was set up,” Mr. Jia, said. Students like Mr. Jia are now the subject of a lawsuit accusing Harvard of discriminating against Asian-Americans in admissions by imposing a penalty for their high achievement and giving preferences to other racial minorities.

思路引導 VIP
請您在文中檢索有關 Austin Jia 學業表現 ($academic performance$) 的具體形容詞，並與選項中提及的「拒絕理由」進行事實比對。當文中已明確指出其具備 $high G.P.A.$ 與 $nearly perfect SAT score$ 等條件時，請思考：若某個選項將其被拒絕的原因歸咎於「平庸或不理想的表現」，這在邏輯檢驗上是否與文本敘述產生了衝突？
