[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, African-American and Hispanic students do considerably worse on the SAT. That explains why it is a bad test, not that they are unqualified for the career. Frankly, I think our country could use more doctors, not fewer. African American and Hispanic doctors who graduate U.S. medical schools overwhelmingly pass their boards.[/quote]All the college bound African American students I know have done well on the SAT. That said, they attended good private and public schools. You needn't be a rocket scientist to realize with the right academic and domestic exposure, most AA kids would and do well or at least decent on the SAT or ACT. Generalizing that ALL African American and Hispanic students do worse does nothing but feed into preconceived notions that any minority admitted to colleges are admitted with sub par scores and low grades. It just isn't true. [/quote]
