[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The statement "anyone could have checked the box, therefore the data is illegitimate" is non-falsifiable and therefore has no place in this discussion.

Things you don't know:

1) Whether or not anyone actually did this - the largest beneficiary of ED bonus points were Asians, so if you believe this happened, you're charging the Asian community with malfeasance

2) Whether or not the admissions office actually used a crude self-reporting mechanism to determine eligibility for bonus points

It appears to be a defining feature of the Coalition that they will insert a conspiracy theory wherever they can possibly come up with one.[/quote]

Your fixation with the Coalition is your problem.  I have nothing to do with the Coalition.  If you can get FCPS to clarify the basis of their claim that more lower-income kids were admitted then this discussion is moot.  Historically, FCPS has relied on FARMS data as a proxy for lower-income kids.  That is the basis for us to assume that the same was done here.  And I am pointing out that FARMS data is corrupted because of the poorly worded question. Garbage-in, garbage out.

Whether anyone actually responded yes or not is moot.  If the process is corrupt,  any output coming out of the process is corrupt.  Which really is the argument against this “reform”.  The entire process is corrupt and therefore no credibility can be attached to the outcomes.   Which by the way is a basic principle of law. [/quote]

You say the data is corrupted, do you have any actual source for that statement? [/quote]

Man...you respond like a 2 year old. Read first. [/quote]
