I don’t scapegoat AA. I resent the comment that someone earlier made that a 1450 is nothing from a suburban kid who has taken prep classes. I have never taken a prep class for any standardi. test in my life. I spend my time at the library because I can’t afford to buy many books. Tell me that an urban black kid can’t spend time at a library. I also work to support the things I like doing (20 hours a week). I have a great mom, but being a single parent, she can’t afford for me to take $2,000 SAT prep classes like some people do. I have worked just as hard as anyone else and to tell me that I am not accepted because someone’s “environment” and race were detrimental to their chances at success is ridiculous. Sometimes people are just so brainwashed by the liberal society that arguing has not effect on them. Seems like this thread is like that. I pity the fact that most of society can’t even think for themselves any more. Such a pity.
