[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] AP and magnet courses remains the last bastion of race-blind merit. They may not be perfect but that's all we have. In the end, I don't want a heart surgeon operating on me who got into academic programs because they were under represented minorities. [/quote] I, personally, am more interested in the heart-surgery skills of my heart surgeon than their test scores when applying to college. But you do you.[/quote] You are picking on an issue which does not seem to be really relevant. The PP was talking about ability vs identity (under represented minorities), while you were picking on which specific ability (the PP actually said nothing about test scores). It would be nice if you clarify: do you not agree with him/her on the "under represented minorities" part?[/quote]
