Did MLK have the lowest GRE scores in history?

[Politico]

These spankings are getting more brutal by the day SS. Hey look what the abbreviation for your name spells.

 

[ScienceRocks]

Well, MLK couldn't spend his time studying as he had to deal with jim crow.

King graduated with a PhD from Boston University BEFORE Affirmative Action. You don't earn a PhD from Boston University if you have a low level intelligence. You don't even get into Boston University with a low level intelligence or low level scores.

You racists are truly pathetic.

The Legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr. came to Boston University in 1951, searching for a multicultural community and a setting for his study of ethics and philosophy. He became “Dr. King” by earning a Ph.D. in systematic theology here in 1955.During these years, Howard Thurman was named dean of the University’s Marsh Chapel. King not only attended sermons there but also turned to Thurman as his mentor and spiritual advisor. Among the lessons that inspired him most were Thurman’s accounts of a visit to Mohandas Gandhi in India years earlier. It was Thurman who educated King in the mahatma’s ideas of nonviolent protest. As the bridge between Gandhi and King, BU’s progressive dean helped sow the seeds of change in the U.S. and beyond.

Boston University preserves the legacy of our greatest alumnus in several ways. Our library houses thousands of King’s personal papers and correspondence. On Marsh Plaza in front of the chapel, you can see an inspiring sculptural tribute to his famous words, Free At Last. And everywhere on our campus, you can hear what we still consider to be the strongest statement of King’s life’s work: the enormous variety of voices and viewpoints that ring out on our campus.

**Boston University is a leading private research institution with two primary campuses in the heart of Boston and programs around the world.

ShootsSpeeders in comparison makes MLK look like the smartest man alive.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Obviously a fake.

SS, you have to do better. The Board members for the most part are much smarter than you.

HAHAHA. You are such a liar. MLK's own website gives the same numbers.

The board awaits your apology.

That is not the same doctored transcript, is it, that you posted earlier.

Caught you.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Maybe. 350 verbal and 270 math!!! Those are abysmal scores. Like all blacks, MLK relied on special treatment to get into college and to graduate.

Graduate Record Examination Scores for Martin Luther King, Jr.

6 March 1951
Graduate Record Examination Scores for Martin Luther King, Jr.

King took the examination on 3 February. A table enclosed with the test report indicates that his verbal aptitude score is in the second lowest quartile and his quantitative score is in the lowest ten percent of those taking the test. In the advanced test in philosophy, King's score (on a scale of 100) places him in the lowest third, while his other scores (on a scale of 800) are in the lowest quartile in all the subject areas except literature, where he placed in the top quartile.

It explains why he had to plagiarize his college thesis and his speeches. If a normal college graduate did the same they would be stripped of their degree. King was allowed to keep his. I call it an affirmative action diploma.

You are no brighter than SS, Publius. It's a doctored transcript without context.

Speaking from experience? Of course you are, it's a moot point, why am I bothering to ask.
Oh yeah, until now never heard of anyone having the 2nd grade graduation certificate revoked.

LMAO

Martin Luther King was one of the best orators in American history. You are an ass.

Too bad no one heeded his words.

 

[blastoff]

Don't put much faith in things like test scores and college degrees. A score or piece of paper doesn't mean you know what to do with what you've learned, at least that's my experience with a few highly educated dopes I've crossed paths with. And I think Dr. King was one of those guys who made a positive impact on the times regardless of how low some scores are alleged to be.

More men like King are needed today in lieu of the Als and Jesses and Calypso Louies polluting the minds of black people these days.

OP exploded, and MLK has been shown to be much smarter than the far right reactionary wing nuts who posted here.

Are you effing serious? He was the backbone of the Civil Rights movement. Millions upon millions heeded his voice, and they still do today, across the world.

I'm very serious.

His dream hasn't came true and never will.

 

[Zagg]

King had the black preacher style down cold. It doesn't require great intelligence or knowledge. It's more musical than literary. Some people find it very inspiring. The doctorate was very likely more a matter of New England do-gooderism than any qualifications on King's part.

 

[ShootSpeeders]

It is a known fact that racists tend to have lower IQs than most people. Racism and intelligence are closely linked, with racists being of lower intelligence.

Exactly. Affirmative action supporting racists like you are invariably stupid. OTOH - anti-racists like me that oppose af-ac are super-smart.

 

[ShootSpeeders]

You're too funny. The grades are a fake. And if you had any kind of brain, you would realize that MLK went to school BEFORE affirmative action. LMAO

MLK was born in 1929. Affirmative action began in 1961, long after MLK's school days.

Hey stupid. The govt started AA in the 60s but schools had always used it. Everyone knows on a level playing field, negros can't compete.

Again, what's your excuse?

Considering what MLK went on to accomplish, does it matter.
