Oh a racial breakdown!

Does it include Jew vs. Gentile white?

No? That makes the pretty chart relatively useless when talking about overrepresentation, doesn't it? I want to know whether God's Chosen People™ benefit or suffer when we use standardized testing!

(I like watching people spuddle about like startled bugs when you lift up that particular rock.)

This is all they did:

We define displacements as students who enrolled in a selective college, but had a composite SAT score below 1250. We define replacements as students who had not enrolled in a selective college, but had a composite SAT score at or above 1250.

They basically picked an SAT score of 1250 and then just threw up the ethnicity of students from the High School Longitudinal Study of 2009 of 23,000 students who were above that score.

So while asian students might get better grades or benefit from affirmative action in many schools (in some high profile schools the opposite is true), apparently they aren't crowding higher education because their test scores are markedly superior. While they are still overrepresented, their numbers go down because more asians with lower scores are getting into top schools (or were, in 2009) than are excluded despite top scores.

Notice how much whiter test scores only gets. SES includes race/ethnicity so the left side isn't actually showing that this would help rich people, either.

And note that this chart is still misleading, as it bundles two very disparate groups in the "highlighted" area. I know a few Spaniards, and they're a fairly unique demographic, not one to be lumped in with another to make it look more as the writers would prefer. Likewise, is "asian" including middle-eastern? If so, is "other" just natives? Good showing on their part to have no change, I guess.

People should take this into account when choosing a lawyer or a doctor etc -

Did he get into university when he did not deserve to?

“You know what they call the most dangerously incapable kid who was bottom of his medical class?”

“Doctor”

there are just more dumb people who tend to be poor, a lot more than smart people who just happened to be poor. lower iq causes low incomes, not the other way around.

I feel like you haven't hung out with rich people - there's an entire narrative about how messed up 3rd generation of rich families get.

That's to be expected because in higher income areas you tend to have better schools and in better schools you tend to have better students funny how that works.

people with higher iq tend to have higher incomes and live in areas with schools filled with higher iq students, how good the schools are is determined by how teachable the students are. ghetto schools get more budgets but are terrible because they are filled with low iq apes who not only lacked the capacity to learn but also the ability to sit quietly and not interfere with other students who actually want to learn

Yea I always through that the test can be helpful for a lower income person assuming they score well

it'd help smart people who happen to be poor, so it's working as intended.

yeah to fill up higher education with more underqualified minorities, meritocracy help white people more just based on the iq distributions

I mean I think that would help overall. Forcing someone to achieve the standard is more beneficial than lowering standards. Also as you say it’s not fair to whites who put forth the effort only to be rejected

everybody knows that, overall improvement is not what the uniparty wants, it's counter to their diversity agenda

niggers and women are over represented, both are true, you're welcome to provide a similar chart showing the breakdown by gender
