[quote=Anonymous] [/quote] If the test scores of URM are not going up year over year but their admit rate is going up year over year, then this indicates something is off. Could it be that many of those higher performing URM students weren't applying year after year? Maybe. If this is the case, and those kids are scoring really really high, why wouldn't MCPS tout this by publishing the median scores of the admitted students. Wouldn't it be great to see how the admitted students' median scores are great, and it just goes to show that their process is working? Instead, they stopped showing those scores as if there is something to hide. Yes, they admit individual kids not averages, but statistics have meaning. That's why METIS report used those stats, and MCPS used those stats to change the criteria. What you are saying is "look at the stats to make it more equitable, but don't look at the stats when looking at who they admit'. [/quote] Yes, this. Exactly.[/quote]
