Inspiration

We were frustrated by the inequity of the standardized testing system, especially with regards to SAT scores being a larger indicator of socioeconomic status than math and English skills.

What it does

FairScore evaluates students differently. It combines and interprets SAT scores and data to provide an additional metric on which colleges and universities can look at prospective students.

How we built it

Java on Eclipse

Challenges we ran into

Importing a CSV file, debugging code, creating a solution within the time limit

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Building and creating the foundation of a program that has the potential to help students and colleges alike

What we learned

A lot fo problems have been solved, but there’re still plenty more that anyone can contribute to.

What's next for FairScore

Collecting more information to create a more personalized profile for each student, gaining reputation and implementing FairScore into college application programs
