[quote=Anonymous]Wealthy communities in America have children who spend millions of dollars prepping for SAT, millions of dollars for SAT tutors, millions of dollars for SAT camps, millions of dollars on taking the PSAT and SAT multiple times before the 11 th grade, and millions of dollars for lawyers, psychologists and psychiatrists for the paperwork to get special privelages and accommodations when it comes to taking the SAT exam. All these have an impact on SAT scores least of which is the educational advantages of high SES. Poor communities do not have these opportunities since they can't afford them. If you prepare extensively in this manner, take the SAT exam multiple times and get special accommodations to sit for these SAT exams; [b]the SAT scores will be higher and not lower[/b]. This is simple arithematic. It is not complicated. If a poor individual was only given the above, that SAT score will be higher -- independent of SES!!![/quote]
