EXAMS. v. TESTS OF INTELLIGENCE
Children of poor parents are less successful in winning scholarships than children whose parents are better off.
The difference was shown--says the. Education Committeo of the London County Council--during an investigation as to whether there is any general relationship between success in winning scholarships and parents' incomes.
During 1929, with approximately the same total school rolls in a group of 12 schools in which the children of better-off parents were taught, nine times as many scholar- ahips were won as in a group of Echolara who were children of poorer parents.
THE DIFFERENCE. Scholarships, however, are award- ed ns. the result of examinations. Would the result be different if n general intelligence test were ap plied?
