Average SAT Scores Dip Again – (however more Latinos took the test)
Tagged: latin america, Puerto Rican, studentPosted on: August 29th, 2007“The number of black students taking the SAT rose 6 percent, and the number of test-takers calling themselves “Other Hispanic, Latino or Latin American” (a group that does not include Puerto Ricans or Mexican Americans) rose 27 percent.
The College Board noted that by some measures, the gap between some test-takers and the overall cohort has narrowed. But it remains large, and there were only mixed improvements among different racial groups.
Combined reading and math scores for blacks slipped one point to 862, scores in the category “Mexican or Mexican American” rose two points to 921 and scores for Asians rose four points to 1092.”
