Because that's life. The kid with the better calculator may get better grades in math. The kid with the smart girlfriend may get better grades on his homework. The kid who can afford an SAT prep program may get higher scores.
I don't think extra credit will make a difference in whether a kid gets into Harvard or not. But his parents' connections may.
There is no "social justice" in education. Having no paper, or no calculators, or no computers, etc. might be a likely solution to that. Be careful what you wish for.
