[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think anyone called OP racist but merley stated his jump was wide. Especially when it was later insisted that insisted that Moco was more likely to be Asian/White. The possibilities of mixed race are almost endless so it's not very scientific to make any conclusion on that data.[/quote]

OP here. (Real work starts soon, so I'll be replying sporadically, if at all, shortly.)

Would you have felt better if I would have acknowledged the following:

"I don't know about the composition of mixed-race children in DC versus MoCo. Implicitly, I assumed it was the same. This could be wrong, but I have no data either way. If the anecdotes are correct, and I have no reason to doubt them, then to the extent that mixed race students in MoCo are from a better-testing composition, it suggests that we should exclude the category from comparisons. The effect would be to improve Deal's standing relative to MoCo."

I did. That's my quote from immediately after a poster raised the point that the composition was different in DCPS versus MoCo. It's in the first page of this thread. [/quote]
