[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Really? Well, if there are plenty of smart kids from all races, then the exam should not be changed. The top ranked candidates should be offered the seat regardless of their skin color. [/quote] There are plenty of smart kids in all races and ethnicities. [b]An exam (not just this exam -- any exam) is an imperfect means of identifying them.[/b][/quote] maybe, maybe not... how do you explain the fact Asian/White kids score consistently higher on any and all tests? just a coincidence? i think not. [/quote] Because exams are imperfect means of identifying smart kids of all races and ethnicities. Unless you're suggesting that there is something inherently smarter about white and Asian kids than black and Latino kids? I certainly hope that you're not suggesting that. Not only would it be racist, it would be profoundly ignorant of biology.[/quote]
