[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with the ruling. The open racism
against Asian students boggled my mind. There has also been a large anti white male issue happening and now less white males even go to college than before.The differences in criteria have been unfair. You even see this in kids who grew up on same street and parents make same money but are various ethnicities. Like many things people push things until enough people say no. I do think the SAT will be gone soon because schools will look to find away around this. FWIW I always thought the SAT was also unfair because you need to spend so much money in tutoring and for every genius that doesn’t need it you have thousands more kids who need the tutoring to get over these crazy scores.

I respectfully disagree with you. Just because someone had a higher SAT score does not entitle them to admissions to the best schools. That is how it works in some countries, that isn't how it has ever worked in the United States. These schools have only so many seats, hence why the admission rates for the most selective schools have fallen to single digits. Just because an applicant scores well on a test doesn't mean a school has to take them. The chest pounding by "Asians" here is short sighted. Who is to suggest that the student composition for Asians will fall significantly under the new regime? [/quote]
