<p>That’s one of the worst syllogisms I’ve ever seen. I think the admissions process steals intelligence away from kids. Does anyone really think the admissions counselors sit there and say “hm. This URM has a 1600. He must had enjoyed normal white privilege, because no way is the SAT in anyway a reflection of individual ability; no admissions preferences for him.” A high SAT score is always better than a low one, just like: n+1 > n</p>
