[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, this is why we need the adversity score on the SAT[/quote] The Adversity Score, as I understand it, would give a URM millionaire's kid the same Adversity Score as a low income URM's kid simply by virtue of sharing the same zip code. It would give that same URM millionaire's kid a higher Adversity score than an impoverished white kid living in Appalachia simply by virtue of sharing the same zip code. The millionaire's kid who lives in a grand mountain chalet and has traveled around the world would somehow have the same or higher Adversity score than his/her poorer peers. That doesn't seem right.[/quote]
