You know, you may have a point there. If one makes a test that involves something like who is the quickest to figure out how to use some program like excel, this may not correlate to income, assuming that none of the children has previous experience with excel. But on the other hand, it may still correlate with income. It's just a waste to give a scholarship to children of extremely wealthy people when there are people struggling to put their children through school. Ideally, what one would like to do is make a test, then just eliminate all the children from wealthy homes, and then give the scholarship to the top of the list. But that would cause resentment if everyone took the same test. Also, remember, it's just 2 students from a class of 30.
