[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These accusations of cheating is just copium for people who can't admit that Asians (and to a lesser extent ask immigrants) are outperforming pretty much everyone else.[/quote]

Or, more accurately, they're just calling it like it is. Some of the behaviors of certain prep companies were unethical (in particular asking students to memorize and report back Quant Q questions for their in-house test bank), a statement which is true regardless of the predominant race of the students who take/took those same companies courses.[/quote]

I know its well established this went on but its not about race but about excluding those who could not afford to compete with a rigged process. The change made these programs accessible to far more county residents than was previously true and that better serves all of us.[/quote]

It's not established even a little bit.  Nobody asked 12-13 year olds to memorize test questions on a test and report back.

TJ used to be accessible to smart kids and now it is accessible to a broader range of kids and the average PSAT score dropped 120 points.
The SOL advance pass rates plummeted
The NMSF dropped in half
The math department sent out an email to all their freshman pre-calc students expressing their deep disappointment in their performance as they increased the curve by almost a full letter grade.
The number of students returning to their base school increased tenfold.

It was a disaster and the board didn't care because they had a student body that looked like a Benetton ad.[/quote]

FAKENEWS!!![/quote]
