[quote=Anonymous]I get all of the well documented research that correlates board scores with SES. There are lots of affluent kids with two professional parents and all of the testing and retesting resources that money can buy. Yet, only a relative few post a perfect mark. Everyone wants to explain away the results of the winners and suggest that there is some fairly wide band of capabilities, of which they are of course also included. Exceptionalism does exist in the world and perhaps some of these winners belong in that category. It doesn't always matter how you get there - through a combination of good genes, great school, stimulating home environment, testing support, and lots of practice - results still matter.[/quote]
