Yes. If not for AA the colleges would be almost entirely white, with next to no Black, Latino, Native, or Asian students, not because those other students wouldn’t make the colleges better, but because opportunity would be distributed almost entirely based on race alone.
Probally would be majority Asian with how they study instead of partying

Nope, the only reason Asians are included now is affirmative action. Before that, the elite universities were almost entirely all-white.
The numbers don't support your premise. Asians must score significantly higher on SATs and have significantly higher grades than black or hispanic students in order to have an equal chance at being accepted. The asian student who presents the same exact SAT scores and grades as a black student is much more likely than the black student to be rejected. That is racism. The chances of acceptance should be identical. Period.

People should be judged on content, not skin color.

And they wonder why they keep producing the most unqualified candidates that are dumbing America down. It's a mystery.

So the not-racist thing to do would be to admit only those students with perfect GPAs (never mind the unequal grading) and perfect SAT scores (never mind the racial bias built into the SAT)?

Most universities that require SAT scores don't use them in making admissions decisions ... they just require them because it doesn't cost the university anything to do so while giving them a chance to brag about how their incoming freshmen rank against those of other schools.
