re: Calif. releases latest test scores

I am way past averaging. I am a professional mathematical scientist. As such, i had a ball watching a bunch of blue collar undergrads (being nice for many of you) trying to prove scientific arguments with sociological constructs. Not a single argument in this thread on your side would pass the most basic scientific muster.

ETA: construct a scientific thesis with the data provided by the OP and I will humiliate you. Challenge accepted?

One course and you think you are an expert on a subject that the scientific community admits is undecided. Sounds like what I expect from you.

Some of us have science degrees from a top school and actually practice our craft every day. You still have much to learn about what being certain means in a scientific context. You are young so that is fine.

No one, without bias, debates the IQ differences among races

Currently, the 1.1 standard deviation difference in average IQ between Blacks
and Whites in the United States is not in itself a matter of empirical dispute. A
meta-analytic review by Roth, Bevier, Bobko, Switzer, and Tyler (2001) showed
it also holds for college and university application tests such as the Scholastic
Aptitude Test (SAT; N
2.4 million) and the Graduate Record Examination
(GRE; N
2.3 million), as well as for tests for job applicants in corporate settings
(N
0.5 million) and in the military (N
0.4 million). Because test scores are
the best predictor of economic success in Western society (Schmidt & Hunter,
1998), these group differences have important societal outcomes (R. A. Gordon,
1997; Gottfredson, 1997).

There are like 5 regular posters here who aren't just part of the echo chamber. And texag7 is basically a moron in comparison to the worst libs here. Compared to you TexAg7 is a genious though.

You do not know how to spell genius.

You do not know basic math.

You ignore posters destroying your arguments and repeat the same disproven crap over and over.

You are delusional but keep posting for all to see.

You are a disgrace

My wife gave me a great story

A lady she is connected with on Facebook is a black woman that is not afraid to be candid

This lady was in a discussion about "white privilege". To understand, she is not a whiney person that likes to use the race card.

She did say that white privilege exists and was asked to give an example.

She related being st the post office years ago; she was there with friends mailing off college visitation requests. A lady asked the kid in front of her where he was mailing his letter.

The young man, a white kid, said "Princeton" and the lady said "congratulations!"

She then asked her & she said "Harvard"

The lady's reaction? "The one in Massachusetts?"

She said her THOUGHT was. "Naw, bitch, the one by the liquor store downtown"

But what she said was, "Yes ma'am, the one in Massachusetts"

Have to admit, the girl has a point. Very subtle, but I see her side. And I laughed when I heard this...

The odd thing is that you really don't need a quality education to make it in America. My Starbucks has a 'we're hiring' sign out all the time. You start at $10/hr with benefits. You don't need a HS diploma. You work in an air conditioned environment with minimal physical labor involved.

All you have to do:

1. Show up on time.
2. Be polite.

So, when people on welfare say 'There ain't no jobs out there' they're lying.
