[quote=Anonymous][quote]It's called "test prep." Wealthy white parents will prep their students for the test; disadvantaged kids won't get that. [/quote] Wealthy black parents won't? Really though, it's more complicated than that. Disadvantaged kids are simply less likely to get the basic education they need to do well on the test. NY's Stuyvesant high school has been mentioned here already - its student body is 40% "FARMs" eligible, hardly an indicator of wealth.[/quote]
