It seems people are conflating "low adversity score" with "my perfect SAT score is ruined because my family lives in the nice suburbs".

I think this is just meant to add some standardized and measured context for admissions officers, like an objective version of other "adversity factors" already present in the admissions packet.

However, I think College Board have no business doing this themselves. Seems out of line and very different from standardized testing.
