FairTest University Testing: National Merit The most
prestigious scholarship competition in the U.S., the National
Merit Scholarships, use Preliminary SAT (nearly identical to
the SAT I) scores as the sole criterion to select semifinalists.
This simple change in test format significantly increased the
percentage of National Merit semifinalists who are female, but
girls are still cheated out of a fair share of awards by bias
in the unreformed portions of the exam. The following are FairTest
Examiner articles about the National Merit Scholarship competition
and other examples of test bias against females. Test-Makers

Here is a simple strategy you can use to kill 2 Birds with one
stone. Send your child to college and Invest in College town
real estate to help pay off the Student Loans. College Housing
can often be expensive, Living in a dorm is not the most favorable
living conditions for Most College students. Why not buy a 3
or 4 bedroom home near your child's college and use the rent
generated from the extra bedrooms to help pay for your child's
College Expenses. You purchase a 4 Bedroom home for $250.000
with a 20% Down Payment leaving you a Mortgage payment of $735.
The $735 Payment is based on a 5 Year Mortgage with fixed payments
based on a 1.95% Interest rate. The 20% down payment can come
from many sources including the equity in your home or your
IRA or Keogh accounts (Talk with your tax advisor on the proper
way to do this)
