[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't the blacks and Hispanics learn from the asians? That would maybe there should be classes how to adopt asian culture of studying, determination and hard work.[/quote] The blacks and hispanics are not the ones who are worried about getting into these schools. It is the Whites who have gone from 80% in 1970s to 25% in 2015. And the lowering of standards will help Whites. [b]Give free test prep to economically disadvantaged kids of all races[/b].[/quote] Or switch to a test that is less susceptible to test prep (if there is such a thing).[/quote] Well, the test to get into the gifted program in MCPS is supposed to be very hush hush, and generally, you can't get a hold of past or sample exams. However, some parents have come to realize that it's very similar to cogat tests, so they have their kids prep by taking the cogat sample test. Where there is a will, there is a way.[/quote]
