[quote=Anonymous]All you people worried about grade inflation and GPA equivalence - do you realize that the UC system has a very well defined approach on grades? Your home school GPA is irrelevant - they re-calculate your GPA based on their own criteria. And all the whining about how this disadvantages poor kids and POC is such nonsense. Test prep has made a mockery of any kind of level playing field around standardized tests. Yes, the random first-gen genius might get a bump from a fantastic SAT score, but for the most part, standardized tests work to the benefit of UMC kids who are prepped from birth and whose parents will cling to every last bit of privilege they can.[/quote]
