[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hope this makes colleges drop the stupid essays that rich parents already buy with college essay coaches. Standardized tests and gpa and done. (ECs are already gamed by the rich).[/quote]

Standardized tests and gpas are gamed by the rich already too.[/quote]

Not really.  There’s no (or very little) correlation between HHI and SAT scores when results are also controlled for parental education.  In other words, highly educated parents have kids who score well on standardized test, and as a byproduct of being highly educated they also tend to make good money.

There’s massively more variance in scores inside each income decile than there is between the income deciles.  People claim that standardized test scores simply reflect HHI, but the evidence is clear that that’s not really the case.[/quote]

The clearest predictor of success in K-12 ed is mother's education level, not income.[/quote]

Do you have any articles to support this?  In my small sample of friends and neighbors, I would agree with this.  [/quote]
