[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]However, I don't think the solution is just to send kids who never had to write a research paper to an Ivy.[/quote] Why not? With the grade inflation at the Ivies these days, it doesn't really matter. Once you get in, you're entitled to a gentleman's B+. [/quote] +1. But maybe it all doesn't matter anyway. If the low SES students go to less competitive colleges, they should still do very well. And then they can apply for very competitive grad programs at elite schools and get the same kinds of jobs as those who are from higher SES brackets. And their children will be able to go directly to the competitive colleges from high school.[/quote]
