[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The problem for the colleges is that they won't be able to defend statistically different numbers for different racial groups so unless Harvard etc wants to seriously drop in the rankings and start accepting Asian and white kids with 1400 on the SAT it is will not be able to accept a statistically significant number of kids of other races with those stats either. On the plus side maybe admissions will become more transparent, the schools might be incentivized to actually disclose a minimum GPA and test score for admission? Rather than feeding the vicious cycle of suckering kids into applying to schools they realistically have no chance at and having students applying to 20 colleges it would start to look more like the UK process? [/quote] There are quite a few White and Asian students at Harvard with 1400 SAT scores. Don't treat averages as though everyone in the grouping is the same. [/quote]
