There do seem to be a lot of indications that CollegeBoard is up to shady stuff. But I wish Alfaro would not make me cringe quite so much when I read his posts.
I cannot believe he is suggesting that students sue colleges when they don’t get in and blame the SAT. Even if such a case happened it would be near impossible to prove. Perhaps more importantly any student who did this and received media coverage (presumably what Alfaro wants) would immediately be skewered as a whiny entitled millennial even if their sole reason for suing really was to bring down the mighty CB.
And what’s with his cancer analogy and claim that even the very worst case problems caused by the SAT would in any way be worse than dying of cancer??? I just… I’m speechless.
But back to the CB and the possibility that these particular claims are true – I can’t imagine that the ACT is not on this. They stand to lose millions. Alfara says the states who signed the recent deals can demand the actual documents which prove corruption. Surely the ACT could nudge at least one state to do the right thing and then provide a crack team of experts and lawyers to take a look.
