Standardized tests are culturally biased and we're originally implemented by a racist.

If the index was normalized for tests, this alleged disparity ( SFFA is the source of this massaged data) would be much lower.

Anyways, the SAT / ACT impact will continue to diminish over time.[/quote]
? If you want to talk about cultural differences, generations of African Americans have way more cultural commonalities with American culture than a 2nd gen Asian American.

And if these tests were implemented by racists, do you think those racists weren't racist against Asian people?  Did you know that segregation laws applied to Asian Americans as well? [/quote]

Have you seen the latest SATs? Form the college board's own study guide: In the complex number system, which of the following is equal to
(14 − 2i)(7 + 12i)? (Note: _i = √−1) How can people not realize how racially biased that question is? [/quote]

There are many steps required to get to the point of answering that question.

Sure there was. Old tests are available, I don't suppose that you could actually point to an example of a biased question[/quote]

Strawman. I didn't say math questions on the SAT were biased. I said that "math" is racist and sexist. There are many steps required to score well on the math SAT section.
