The problem is not the achievement gap, but the ambition gap.

Exactly. A person might have a 100 IQ, but you use every bit of it and do quite well in life. On the other hand a 140 IQ that spends the entire day playing video games and posting on KOS how much he loves Obama isn't going to go far.

The problem is not the achievement gap, but the ambition gap.It's really a mix of IQ (potential), culture (external pressures) and ambition (internal drive) and opportunity. Misfiring on any one of those limits maximum achievement. IQ is the one you can't fix. It is usually a stable value +/- 5 points over the life of an individual. It is subject to going down due to trauma, disease or malnutrition over time.
