Do you think dropping SAT tests helps or hurts disadvantage students?? I think it will hurt these students because colleges think that poor students are too dumb to pass these kind of tests....What do you guys think?

I think it hurts all students. The dumbing down of qualifications for admission to college/university will necessitate the dumbing down of the curriculum offered at those colleges/universities. Because how else will those students who are, as you say, "too dumb to pass these kind of tests," be able to catch up to those who are more academically prepared?

Liberals need to conceal their failures in education. This sounds like another idea to do that.

If there is an opening for two students both with the same grades one who has tutors, goes to summer camp private music lessons and access to great computers and AP courses, their own bedroom and bathroom at home. The second is in a underfunded school has to work 20 or 30 hours a week to help support the family. Takes care of a couple younger siblings while her mom works two jobs and the latter scores a couple points lower on a standardized test my money is on her tenacity under rough conditions speaking more about her ability to be successful than student one. Interviews and recommendations should have more weight than tests.

And THAT happens ALL the time!

Why not just send a student to Harvard who reads on a 5th grade level, too.

Interviews are as scarce these days as common sense is in liberal/l*****ts. If the financial background check on an applicant’s family shows considerable wealth, there may be an interview involving the parents. In 99.5% of admissions, algorithms make the decision.

It isn’t a matter of their intelligence it is a matter of the opportunities afforded them.

It's a matter of merit. Asian students are routinely discriminated against and other minorities with much lower test scores are given preference.

That is true!!... There are more Asian doctors and nurses than b****s, Hispanics or even white! Why?? Because they study more and better students for the most part!! And also because their parents are on their asses to do their homework every night!

===============
Using race, they h**e and complain that math subject is r****t. Now demanding that SAT is r****t as well, and must be eliminated.

Most courses they take are Black Studies, Ethnic Studies, Hispanic Studies on student aids programs. After they finish their course, majority of them could not get jobs. Then they file for discrimination.

There are those who hire non-qualified for the position and ends up a disaster.

When hired, these people join the labor union, whose main goal is increasing their union dues for lucrative union officials income and more money to donate to the democrat campaign funds.

Many of them end up working for McDonalds, but demand $15 /hour wage. When not provided, violence and chaos ends up on these people on the streets. We have many of them at present populating this country to take over.

Biden's solution is raising taxes to those who've worked hard and achieved, in order to distribute to these non-achievers, lazy, and dumb.

True, but Asians now are beaten by the thugs.
Statistics show Asians have majority of home ownership. They work hard, and their parents guide their children in their school performance.
