For those of you who moved here for the quality of education, but are now trying to make the US more like the system you left behind....pick your poison.

Yes, and that is perfectly Ok.

Then they compete against other countries in the Intl Math Olympiad. In the past, making USAMO cam was a guaranteed ticket to MIT. Not anymore. Especially if you are an Asian boy.

Grow up and at least admit the reality smacking you in the face.
Any black student, Latino/Latina student, or Native American student within a football field of a 1590 SAT score would receive full tuition offers from every elite school in the country. That is a fact.
You can think the disparity in standards is good policy, or morally or historically appropriate, whatever. But let’s at least acknowledge reality.

However 1450 kids get accepted with certain skin color or rich parents over 1590 kid because.... courage, kindness, and likability?
1450 is still 99th percentile. There's essentially no difference in their test-taking ability from someone with 1590. If all else was equal and the 1450 was significantly more courageous, kind and likeable, I'm not sure why you wouldn't choose them regardless of skin color.
I think the difference is big between 1450 and 1590. 1450 might be 99th percentile, but it's not good enough especially for those elite schools.
Now 1590 is what? like 99.99 percentile? Now we are talking.
We all know that courage, kindness, and likability score is bullshit.
Seriously? You're going to quibble over the difference between the 99.0th percentile and the 99.9th percentile? I'm guessing you're in no more than the 98.7th percentile in intelligence if you believe that's a difference that matters.
Isn't is significant difference between 1 out of 100 (99.0th percentile) vs 1 out of 1000 (99.9th percentile)?????????????????????????????????????????
No?????????????????????????
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You still don't get it?
Looks like your math ability is 10th percentile.
You probably thought the difference between 99 and 99.9 is small = 0.9
It means 1 out of 100 vs 1 out of 1000
That's a huge difference.
LMFAO
Yes and your English is 1 percentile lmfao 😂
