SAT Adversity Score

[22LR]

I'm sure you've read about it by now. What the?

Your kid studies hard for 12 years, has the resources to go to college, pays for the SAT, only to be penalized for being an intelligent Caucasian or Asian, living in a decent neighborhood because you wanted the best for your kids?

Who gives these people the power to do this crap? How can discrimination be legal?

The most stupid, inane ignorance...
Don't get me started.

It's called 'social justice' as if there is such a thing

The brainiac behind this one came up with common core.

Who verifies the adversity info? Seems open to massive cheating to me.

Oh it is.
White guy puts down a ghetto address.
Would they follow through and check?
Doubt it.

You know its not legit when they refuse to actual publish the mechanisms behind it or report to you what your personal score/adjustment is as you take the test.

NFW! Just get a divorce, declare tranny, move to Creek County and your future basement snowflake is home free, except for debt.

Yet, another progressive and wildly biased star chamber.

So, howTF would a "privileged" honky know how to find a ghetto address?

So much for the prestige of some of these diplomas.

Already a huge problem, AOC has a degree from Boston University.

Yep, that diminishes MLK a bit. I believe he went there too.

Great business idea. Thanks.

My 20 year old daughter: former valedictorian, 34 ACT, national merit scholar and junior at OSU thinks this adversity score nonsense is complete garbage.

Her mother and I divorced 9 years ago and in her case she credits that and related contextual events with motivating her to succeed rather than being a hinder.

Everyone is different. The great thing about standardized tests is that they ignore anything but the meritocracy of results.

Hell Lieawatha Elizabeth Warren has been doing it for decades to get ahead.

Poor Asians from poor neighborhoods and bad schools still destroy everyone on the SAT. White poor kids grossly do better than well-off black kids on the SAT.

We are making excuses for cultures that grossly don’t value education.

Nobody has the balls anymore to say, "We're taking the best and brightest regardless of ethnicity.".

I suppose we should all grovel in appreciation that someone with a pair shut down the insipid movement for affirmative action protocols for air traffic controllers.
OMG, wrap your brain around that catastrophic notion. Yikes!

CNN, lying by omission in their Tweet, left out the most important part of the article (highlighted).


The middle school didn’t merely “invite” the performers.

Whoa, that's totally disturbing.
Make it stop!

There's a Phil Silvers in every cloud, or something like that.... These people are the highest risk for offing themselves.

Exactly.
That's why Trump and the joint chiefs don't want them in the armed services.
They're extremely high maintenance, and their contributions to the fighting cause never equal their inherent liability.
There's no upside whatsoever.

Hillsdale?

Maybe. They are one of the few who untethered themselves from the government tit. Others must comply with government edicts in order to keep the money flowing in.
