[quote=Anonymous]The “Adversity Score” may or may not be informative. However, the fact that the College Board is keeping those score from the students themselves is quite bothersome. If the score has legitimate benefits, then they should be transparent about it. Otherwise, people have a right to be quite skeptical about how that score is being used and who is getting impacted positively or negatively by it. The lack of transparency is why so many people have a problem with holistic admissions policies and anything other than just straight GPA/test score determinations in the first place. If you’re taking the test (and usually paying for it), then you should have a right to know everything that the test provider is sending to colleges, including but not limited to an Adversity Score. Hiding it from students will only create a brand new bogeyman (whether it’s fair or not).[/quote]
