[quote=Anonymous]The SAT change from the American College Board leadership is a means to keep pace with the ACT and to reign in the escalating high performance of Asian-Americans and reduce the performance gap between Asian-Americans and all the rest. For the most part, Asian-Americans have thrived in the US despite educational reform. Others have not --including the entitled. Most of the educational reforms of the last decade (elimination of acceleration in public schools and the slow elimination of gifted programs around the country) seem an attempt by the leaders of US education to close the performance gaps -- particularly with respect to Asian-Americans. There is no history of meaningful and substantive attempts to close the performance gaps between whites and blacks for over 300 years. The SAT changes will bring up the bottom closer to the level of the highest performing Asian-American group--thereby closing the gap.[/quote]
