As grades improve beyond this level, Hispanic students lose popularity at an alarming rate. Although African Americans with GPAs as high as 3.5 continue to have more friends than those with lower grades, the rate of increase is no longer as great as among white students.

The experience of black and white students diverges as GPAs climb above 3.5. As the GPAs of black students increase beyond this level, they tend to have fewer and fewer friends. A black student with a 4.0 has, on average, 1.5 fewer friends of the same ethnicity than a white student with the same GPA. Put differently, a black student with straight As is no more popular than a black student with a 2.9 GPA, but high-achieving whites are at the top of the popularity pyramid.

My findings with respect to Hispanics are even more discouraging. A Hispanic student with a 4.0 GPA is the least popular of all Hispanic students, and Hispanic-white differences among high achievers are the most extreme.
The social costs of a high GPA are most pronounced for adolescent males. Popularity begins to decrease at lower GPAs for young black men than young black women (3.25 GPA compared with a 3.5), and the rate at which males lose friends after this point is far greater. As a result, black male high achievers have notably fewer friends than do female ones. I observe a similar pattern among Hispanics, with males beginning to lose friends at lower GPAs and at a faster clip, though the male-female differences are not statistically significant.

STOP WITH THE COMPARES TO CACS KKK WHITES

counterpart?

300 hundred held back, and now there is compares?

No

Black should hold themselves to their own standards. Whites are not the standards. Samples for how things can be done. But not the standard.

find solutions to challenge and create opportunity.

I don't even know how to appropriately respond to this comment

 

[SouthernBelle]

so you mean to tell me that men (not just women) play a role in this whole situation.

 

[Mr Uncle Leroy]

thats the undertone with any of those stats...no compares.

I have two sons. one I open doors. another I close doors.

how the stats going to look?

beside their a bunch of racist, arrogant, segregationist, pompous, pale type of folks.

Sad to say this is true

As I started to raise my grades in hs, I had to stop hanging around certain nikkas that I used to and my popularity level went compared to my first 2 yrs
