- Describe the challenge you want to address:
- BIPOC students score significantly lower on their standardized tests (SAT, ACT) than their white counterparts (National Center of Educational Statistics). Personally, as a student who goes to a “prestigious” school scores, under 1400s and 1500s are considered to be “bad”. However, hearing from my counterparts in the Bronx, they are scoring in the low thousands. These disparities are heavily prevalent.
- What is the solution to the challenge?
- Creating a government-affiliated standardized test preparation program that assists BIPOC students in the Bronx develop the skills to excel on these exams.
- Please provide your Zip Code
