I did not think that the point of the article is to complain about award withholding from Asian students.. although the attribution of race seems misplaced.

I thought the point was about the loss of meritocracy and the redefinition of what it means to fail. And grading work on a 50-100 scale.. you really don't think that's weird?




The focus of the article is on a parent complaining they didn’t get notified about a certificate their kid received.


No it's not. It's about a pattern of withholding merit information from parents and students for years.


How is it about the loss of meritocracy if the PSAT didn’t change and the awards didn’t change?
