The study at focus in this proposal explored the college and career choices of 963 high school students across six urban high schools in a large public school district in the Southwestern United States. A Quantitative Critical Race Theory, or QuantCrit, analysis was applied to expose the false narrative of number neutrality and the systemic racism that belies it. Findings demonstrate how the myth of meritocracy through education (as ‘the great equalizer’) is perpetuated when educators ignore structural disadvantages underlying the college and career aspirations of Students of Color, as well as the reality of the college and career options they have.
