[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It has a lot to do with choices of high schools for parents.  It's one thing for the top AA students at Banneker or Eastern to score in the 600s on SATs, which most seem to do, another thing altogether for my Asian children (with a distinctively Asian surname).  No reason for them to apply to elite college without 700s - they'll surely be rejected out of hand.  If a DCPS HS doesn't have a track record of delivering high SAT scores, much better for us to look at BASIS, privates or the burbs.

If your Asain kid can garner high SAT scores at Basis, private, the burbs, your Asian kid can score them at Banneker. BTW, it was a Asian girl from Banneker who earned a Gates scholarship last year. It appears that not all Asians have bought in to the white is greater mentality and we must flock to them to exceed. [/quote]

Why the obsession with a school's SAT scores? That would be one of the last things I worried about, as SAT scores are so individual and based on the individual child's efforts.[/quote]
