But if we take the average (which includes black ghetto kids and hispanic ghettos kids) the score goes down in the double digits.
This isn't a racist post, it's just a fact. Most of them live in poverty and poverty leads to nothing. Its a sad reality
That's my point, why waste resources on poor performers. Also, poverty is not a main factor for the poor results, it's culture.
Cultures can change.
These families were raised generation after generation believing that there is no future for them other than poverty or crime.
They need to be given an option, but first we have to get rid of the factors that make them be who they are. Gangs, drugs, discrimation, racism, etc.
The only obstacles that exist for them are self inflicted, they are the only ones that can fix their cultural issues, no one else.

China is cheating and only sampling scores from a very select percentage of the country, if this is the same poll I saw earlier. So 35?
