BAHAHAHAHAHA
right....
How about considering a different theory... like .... um... they are not as smart?
If there was a “cultural bias” in those tests it would show up when Asians take them!
Cultural bias was always a crock for an excuse. How can math problems be culturally biased? That's half the SATs. If black students were doing poorly on the verbal part but equalling whites on the math part, they'd have a point. Blacks do poorly on both parts.
I would bet even the verbal part was never as biased as they made it out to be. If you're going to school for eight years, studying hard, and already speak English, the verbal part should not be a problem cultural differences or no cultural differences.
Obviously, the problems were not the tests. If the tests were faulty, then many students with low or middling SAT scores would be great scholars in college. The tests do a great job of predicting collegiate success.
It does, they just score consistently and statistically higher than whites, in much the same way that blacks score lower, though the difference is not that large. So the obvious explanation is that whites have designed tests to exploit a cultural bias in such a way as to hold down blacks while helping out their asian buds! Dirty racists!! Pretty damned clever too, to figure all that out.
