[quote=Anonymous]I think you can simultaneously believe schools should have latitude to deprioritize test scores for reasons the successful lawyer articulated while asserting that they are doing so now as a workaround for the affirmative action ruling. They don’t want data that suggests systematic racial preferences. So it is better not to have the data. I think in practice everyone knows white and Asian kids are at a huge disadvantage if they do not submit test scores barring exceptional circumstances (low income, special hardship or a fantastic transcript). Certainly some white and Asian kids get admitted without scores but the odds are probably quite low. The schools of course don’t provide any meaningful statistics on this. [/quote]
