[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a means of fostering social change (and knocking Asians down) this is awful.[/quote] There are plenty of poor Asian neighborhoods. Wouldn't those zip codes count, too? Honestly, it's just an adversity score that they're including with the test scores. They aren't even planning to tell the test takers what their adversity score is. It seems like the colleges will be free to take those adversity scores into consideration or not take them into consideration and give as little or as much weight to them in their admissions decisions as they want to. I thought that universities run demographic data anyway so I don't know that this is really anything all that new other than now this will be done for them. [/quote]
