They see success despite oppression as privilege because acknowledging that we thrive where they fail is too hard

Carl Brigham the creator, a eugenicist who created the text because race mixing in academia was dropping the quality of education. I don’t know why you are trying to whitewash the past or erase Jewish struggles. Your only counterpoints to multiple sources has been “no no that just didn’t happen”. It seems like you need to spend sometime learning history instead of rewriting it.

This is a conspiracy theory.

It’s not well documented . Again this was mostly to diversify the colleges

I read it. It’s partly true but mostly a conspiracy theory. The colleges were also looking to make sure they were admitting diverse people from all over the country not just NYC. And the SAT made that possible for smart people from all over the country who didn’t come from privilege.

also “period of historic privilege” is a wild way to say “less oppression than usual in the US”

Post ww2 American Jews where still banned from country clubs. Colleges had “Hebrew quotas”. Kaplan was created by Jews because the SAT was designed to keep Jews out of college. Also Jews were on the for front of the civil rights movements in the 1960’s. Fuck these revisionist antisemites.

I’d bet their definition of privilege is nothing short of antisemitic stereotypes

The SATs was designed to give regular people a chance at college so it wasn’t just the children of privilege and in the early days Kaplan was caught up in controversy because he would have people come back with the test questions and back then they didn’t change the test up each time.

About the SAT? It’s no conspiracy. Read “the chosen” it goes into detail about about elite schools attempts to block initially Jews from entry then applying that same practice to other races and soccer economic classes.

US IQ scores have been dropping. That’s just a fact. I just don’t happen, you’re not being accurate. And if things like admissions interviews and SATs are so bad, why keep them now?

Okay now I can’t tell if you are a troll or just have a reading comprehension issue. This is not about the modern SAT, as we have said over and over again. This is about the origin of it and how it was originally designed to keep other races out of the elite schools.

They wouldn’t need a test for that. They would just ban them. And if that was what it was used for it would have been banned

In the late nineteenth century, elite colleges and universities had their own entrance exams and they required candidates to travel to the school to take the tests.[10] To better organize matters, the College Board, a consortium of colleges in the northeastern United States, was formed in late 1899 to establish a nationally administered, uniform set of essay tests You have loose definition of the word evidence. I don’t disagree some is true.
