[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But SWW is overwhelmingly girls. 60% or so. [/quote]

39% Black
36% White
12% Latino
6% Asian
6% Multi[/quote]

Very PC.  So now we know why admission is by application instead of just test scores so the school knows which racial demographic gets checked.[/quote]

How is it PC when every student has to meet certain criteria for admission, or advance in the admission process? Before a student can be invited to take the exam, every student needs a 3.0 gpa.  There are MS students, from diverse backgrounds, with a 3.0 gpa.  Next, students are required to pass the entrance exam.  Again, students from all ethnic backgrounds pass the exam.  Were you hired for your job based on test scores?  Was there an interview?

I'm going to take a stab at your ideal demographics for SWW:

80% white - reinforces your belief that admission is merit based
10% Asian - the only other ethnic group that whites think are more worthy than themselves
5% Latino  - hardworking
4% Multiracial - student is likely to have a white parent
1% African-American - seems about right and only if they are from Deal, Hardy, SH
