<p>I don’t know if there is that much difference in “hispanics” anymore. Unless the family is central american laborers, all the “hispanic” kids I know are very mixed i.e. Puerto Rican and Cuban, Cuban and Mexican, Mexican and Irish, Puerto Rican and Italian. </p>
<p>I think many of these kids are self identifying as hispanic because their parents told them to, for any benefit they may recieve for being “hispanic”.</p>
<p>I also agree that Spanish AP tests will skew the results.</p>
<p>I believe that the SAT scors for hispanics are still about 100 pts. per section lower than whites (450 vs 550). This is why my wife and I told our hispanic son with the Irish first name and German last name to self identify as hispanic.</p>
