[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Smart people tend to earn more money and intelligence is hereditary. Obviously anti-AAP folks are too dumb to understand correlated omitted variables. lol [/quote] We need more diversity in AAP - many studies have shown that students learn more if they are in a diverse environment.[/quote]The equity report already showed that URMs are being admitted to AAP with significantly lower test scores than white or Asian kids. Although the equity report focused on race, it's reasonable to assume that lower income kids are likewise being admitted with lower test scores, since the selection committee has all of that information and since increasing FARMS kids is a priority. What more do you want them to do?[/quote]
