Pretty amazing considering many asian students have parents whose first language was not english, and who still speak their native language in the home

Native American crashed but that might be a sample size issue

#stereotype hat [on] off

Asians maintain their culture but assimilate

Many first generation hispanics don't assimilate. They live in neighborhoods surrounded by Spanish speakers, and shop at stores run by Spanish speakers.

And then wonder why they struggle with English the one or two times a day on average they speak it. Especially when they do converse in English, it is highly casual and idiomatic as opposed to formal wordplay mastery that the SAT tests for.

The trend is due to the growing culture pandering to being unable to speak English effectively, especially out West.

Which I think relates to the Hispanic drop. I'll have to find it, but their Verbal had dropped but their Quantitative has risen, which could imply some language related issues, with the increasing sample, that are less of a factor in the Quantitative section.

I wonder if the decline with native americans is due to actual native americans or ppl checking native american to try and take advantage of their 1/32nd native american heritage?

The only way whites can fix this is to find a statue of an Asian person to be offended by and knock it down. Science

Hmmm. Got a 740 back when it was still called the "Verbal" section.

These kids today, though.

The implication is that OML is Asian if I'm understanding correctly.
