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]

What are Asians and Whites in common but so much different for Blacks? culturally

What biase are we talking about?  [/quote]

What?  :?:  :shock:  :shock: [/quote]
DP.. apparently, SATs are culturally bias, hence Black people score lower on SATs.   But since Asian Americans score higher on SATs that must mean that they have more in common with white people.

That's the argument.  And yes, it's laughable and ignorant.[/quote]

Then what is your reason for AA people scoring lower?

Go ahead, say it out loud.  I dare you.  You know you think it. Have some courage and show everyone what you really think.

And that, right there, ladies and gents, is why colleges have the current policy.[/quote]

not PP, but my guess is that they care less about education and put less effort.
Culturally they may value more in succeeding in the areas such as sports or  entertainment industry like being a rapper or singer which are all ok. Nothing is wrong with that.

However if you want to improve on the education area, you have to go to the source of the problema and support and aid them to care more and put more effort in education instead of forcing it to increase the numbers artificially.

Would you say that Asians score lower on the interviews because they put less effort into those areas?

[/quote]

Wrong. Asians actually scored high on 'Interveiws'  :wink: 
go back and check it out.

they did not score HIGH they scored the same as white counterparts. Again, it seems pretty weird that we keep hearing about Asians vs Whites unless of course, its about the blacks who SOMEHOW get in, always undeservedly. [/quote]
