[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Colleges can easily identify high scoring URMs via the College Board Recognition Program, the National African American, Hispanic, and Indigenous Program awards. This requires taking the PSAT or multiple AP exams.[/quote] you are missing the point. If you read the article, it states that most of the URM currently in the top colleges are higher income, and that number is pretty low. To increase diversity, they have to cast a wider net and look at lower income kids who score higher than their peers, but still not as high as some of the wealthier kids.[/quote]
