[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ are you being willfully obtuse or you just stupid? - dp[/quote] Let me clue you condescending, knuckle-dragging idiots in on something - very few of you seem to grasp what exactly this new metric GS is employing. If you did, you would be arguing about whether it makes sense that they are measuring "equality." Instead, you keep making noise about "racism" and whether or not a particular schools' Hispanics measure better or not than Hispanics from another school. [i]HELLO - they are not comparing minority groups between schools. [/i] They are comparing the [b]difference[/b] between groups in each school, compared to the difference in groups to other schools (AKA the state average). They are measuring how "equal" the score distribution your school is in terms of whatever groups they've identified. So, it is irrelevant how well a particular "disadvantaged group" does in your school,[i] it's the gap between that group and the higher performing groups that matter. [/i] [/quote]
