<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div>That's completely NOT TRUE. The SAT tests are available to ANYONE. Those "minority" students CHOSE to NOT take the tests. Prep courses are even offered in CA high schools. NOONE is "shutting them out."a large percentage of poor, black and Hispanic students... never take the SAT Subject Tests, shutting them out from eligibility.[/b]

And the tests and the teaching methods today are manipulated to assure the hispanics "are not left behind"... And who do you think is paying the bill?
