[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any update about new entrance test structure for TJ admission?[/quote]

FCPS will decide after consulting with NAACP.[/quote]

Given the under-representation of the AA demographic, it's clear their current process discriminates, so consulting on how to improve this with the NAACP seems like a great idea.[/quote]

can't tell if this is a troll or genuine, this is joke this is exactly what they did last time and we got the crappy results we all see here aka less quality folks from advanced AAP centers and more random kids from other schools (thanks geogrpaphic quota) with lower GPAs and taking Algebra I in 8th.  Folks taking Algebra 1 in 8th aren't advanced by any objective measure.

The most hilarious part is after all this the percentage of African Americans attending barely budged.[/quote]

It's easy to tell which groups are being favored by looking at the ratio of %admit/%population for each demographic. This was more or less what the judge did to dismiss the case. [/quote]

Yes, that ratio is a strong indicator that the test culturally favors some groups over others.  [/quote]
