The correct answer is D. He felt he was denied admission to school based on race.

Explanation:

Allan Bakke, a white male, applied multiple times to be admitted at a medical school; however, he failed every time. Due to this, in 1974 Bakke decided to sue the University of California (the last institution he applied to) arguing he had been discriminated based on race because some minority students had lower scores than him, and they were admitted due to race quotas. This case ended with the decision of the Supreme Court that forbade racial quotas, ordered the admission of Bakke, but still allowed the race to be considered as part of admissions. According to this, the correct answer is "He felt he was denied admission to school based on race."
