I agree with most of your points, but I should note that many minority students actually do have the opportunity to prepare for the SHSAT and SAT. Whether or not they take advantage of such opportunities is another story; however, I do know that in minority hoods resources aren't as plentiful as in more affluent hoods.Effort and creative thinking mean nothing. I disagree, despite the stagnant jobs market and the sorry state of our education system. As we discussed in another thread, if opportunities don't come your way after you've paid your dues through school and such like, make your own. Not the easiest thing in the world to do, but it's much better than remaining in a stagnant state (or worse, depending on handouts). my blog |
