[quote=Anonymous]SAT will include 'adversity score' Share Updated 2 hours ago To correctly identify the socioeconomic backgrounds of those taking the SAT exam, the College Board will assign an adversity score to every student. Fifteen factors will be considered when calculating the score, including crime rate and poverty levels of where the student comes from. Colleges will be given that score along with the student’s application, who will be unaware of their result. The College Board said it was introducing the new system after a trial at 50 schools last year, as well as concerns over “income inequality influencing test results for years,” according to The Wall Street Journal.[/quote]
