The percentage of Asian students dive-bombed from 74.9% with Class of 2021 to 65.2% with Class of 2022. The major change to the process in that year was the change to [b]the exams that you all are so desperately trying to save now[/b]. In the two years since, 2023 was about 72% and 2024 was about 73%. This tracks perfectly with the increases that Curie reported.

When a new exam was introduced, somehow magically you saw the largest group of Hispanic students that we've seen in decades. [b]But then the prep companies caught up[/b], and order was restored to the universe.[/quote]

You nailed it. It's not like the cohort of Asians in the Class of 2022 was somehow magically less bright or less talented than the other years. They were simply less prepared. A decrease of 10 percentage points after a steady two-decade incline is not an accident.[/quote]

Combatting the effect of test prep by changing exams is fine, perhaps even eliminating in place of another metric.  However, per school quotas is just elevating inferior students because they happen to be at a particular school.  
Parents can move for a year to the weaker school, and this year can just pretend to move.[/quote]

I'll repeat what I said earlier in this thread:

1) The process will change significantly for next year

2) It still won't include an exam[/quote]
