[quote=Anonymous]Oh come on, kids don't score low on the SAT because they can't afford expensive prep coures in this day and age. Not when the Internet and Amazon.com are brimming with free or dirt cheap test prep. They do so because their parents don't value education like kids who score high, and/or don't have the time and energy to help them get into reading and math as much as is necessary to score high. If Banneker's admissions process was indeed "rigorous", as has been claimed on this and other threads, their average SAT scores would be in the 600s. Period. It's simply not a tough test. My 7th grader just scored in the high 500s on all three sections to participate in a Johns Hopkins CTY camp this summer and he's no genius. He did the test prep himself on-line for $0, mostly at our local public library. [/quote]
