The trend is to either eliminate these exams or make them so easy that everyone passes. Why? Because we are unable to deal with the fact that certain ethnic groups consistently fail at dramatically higher rates than others. See the movement to eliminate the SAT and LSAT, to eliminate magnet programs, etc.

And of course you refuse to talk about the reason why those particular ethnic groups fail at higher rates. Your also comment suspiciously reminds me of eugenics.

> the fact that certain ethnic groups consistently fail at dramatically higher rates than others

I'm having a lot of trouble with this statement. It leaves the reader to guess at which are the groups in question, and for no good reason. If it is indeed a fact why not link a credible source?

I also asked them for a source on a follow up comment the user made, all I received was a downvote and no response. Pretty safe to say they are just spewing nonsense and dont actually have any evidence.

Here in California, at least, it's often been lawsuits around handicapped students: https://www.sfgate.com/education/article/Disabled-students-s...

why do those ethnic groups perform poorly? are we talking ethnic groups versus whites who have gone to the same 3 elementary/middle/high public schools in the same cities/counties?
