high school and public libraries have ton of _absolutely_free_ materials for SAT prep, this is really lame excuse.
it is not the lack of money that is holding the kids, it is lack of willpower to push yourself to top 10%/1%/0.1%.
It is hard work and not every kid can do it, considering all the leisure alternatives they got
Money==High SAT is silly meme that only lazy parents perpetuate. If money could give high SAT then there would be no need in Legacy Admissions in the first place! (Why need legacy backdoor, if you can hire tutor to get top 0.1% score?)
- tomtheelder 3y agoImplication here is that poor kids should need willpower, personal initiative, and self-discipline as teenagers, but that rich kids shouldn’t.
- slt2021 3y agoalso not true, rich kids also have willpower, discipline and initiative. Not every rich kid is like Don Trump Jr!!!! A lot of them are quite capable (esp the ones who make it to ivies)
