[quote=Anonymous]From the WSJ article, it sounds like everyone starts at a 50, and the score is adjusted lower for privilege, and higher for hardship. So yes, you could consider it a “ding” that that a child with an intact, educated family, attending a high performing school gets a lower score. But it’s still a separate score. It’s not like the adversity score is added to test score so that kids from the slums get a 95-point boost. It’s just for context, and will likely be considered the same way any other known adversity is considered.[/quote]
