Which is absurd, considering it's involved in college admission process.
Maybe we should also have a hidden citizen score, to be used behind the scenes in the courts of law?
- NullPrefix 7y agoShould adversity points be included in that citizen score?
- Mirioron 7y agoWe should call it the social credit score.
- harryh 7y agoThe college admission process (especially for more elite schools) already involves lots of secrecy.
- solveit 7y agoAnd all that secrecy should go burn in a fire. Colleges have more impact than many government institutions, and they certainly take in a lot more government funding than many government institutions. They should be as transparent as government institutions if not more (What's the rationale against? National security?).

- ceejayoz 7y ago> Which is absurd, considering it's involved in college admission process. Your SAT score is just about the only bit of the admission process you have access to. You don't get the admissions officers' opinions on your essay, what they thought of your extracurriculars, how they perceive the reputation of your high school, what their alumni interviewers said, etc. (Chances are you can make a pretty good guess at what the adversity score is going to be, too.)
