Just 4.5% of offers went to Black students and 7.6% to Latino students, up from 3% and 6.7% respectively last year.
Specialized high schools' over-reliance on a single test for admissions perpetuates segregation, with minimal representation of Black students in top schools.
City data shows that 52% of offers went to Asian American students and 26% to white students, revealing persistent racial disparities in admissions.
City officials strive for diversity in specialized schools, contrasting with the stark reality of continued racial stratification in NYC's education system.
