No matter how hard they cry, no matter how much they spend or blame Whites, the Pattern just won’t quit...
The College Board recently released the average 2009 SAT scores by race and ethnicity and the gap between Black and Latino students versus white and Asian students has widened, despite the College Board’s recent efforts to change questions to eliminate cultural bias.
The results send the clear message that the playing field is not level and that standardized tests are a poor prognosticator of success. An increasing number of colleges and universities have dropped the test as an evaluative tool, and these results show why.
As I wrote last week…
it seems no matter what we do to “cure” Black dysfunction will always be a trillion dollars, a new federal program or affirmative action excuse away.
In a related story a teacher at the famous Little Rock High had this to say recently about the persistent racial gap…
“the gap should be closing, but it doesn’t appear that it is.”
And as Sailer notes…
If the sample sizes are big enough and all else is equal, a higher IQ group will virtually always outperform a lower IQ group on any behavioral metric.
Its called the Pattern folks and no one knows how to fix it, no one.
How about separate the races so that SAT and race are one? But we would need something like colonialism to make sure that every land had just rulers.
