Who Will Succeed in College? When the SAT Predicts Black Students' Performance.
Fleming, Jacqueline
Review of Higher Education, v25 n3 p281-96 Spr 2002
Analyses found that: (1) the SAT predicts academic success more accurately for Black students in predominantly Black rather than White colleges; (3) the SAT predicts best for Black males in Black colleges but worst for Black males in White colleges; and (4) the SAT-GPA correlation is strongest for high-achieving Black students who focus on academics rather than race-related issues.
