(2) What types of item format or content are identified as being differentially easier or more difficult for Hispanic vs. White, non‐Hispanic students? (3) How accurately do selective admissions tests predict the performance of Hispanic students in college? and (4) Do Hispanic students have equal access to information necessary for long‐term and short‐term preparation for selective admissions tests?
