The primary discussion refers to the SAT, though some discussion generalizes to the ACT. Whether or not admission test scores can properly be used for minority students, especially those involved in intercollegiate sports, is discussed. The special problems dealing with collegiate preparation, especially for blacks, are presented. The author critiques standardized tests as potentially harmful to Black students,also noting the high number of Black students requiring remedial education, a result of issues in the K-12 education system.This Item is protected by copyright and/or related rights.
